Opposite the Columbia Theater in Longview, Washington is this very different monotone mural with the wood grain of a log round superimposed on the pioneer logging scene.
captured through the viewfinder Ansco Rediflex + Nikon D70, first snow of the year. Log cabin doll house.
This pile of logs was shot on B3084 heading north towards Port of Menteith, Stirlingshire, Scotland... 15/02/14
It was a cold morning in February when I took this pre-dawn shot at Log Boom Park in Kenmore, Washington, my first with a tripod.
One Saturday, about a month ago, I ran down to the break by where I live to check the surf and see if the new swell had moved in. Sure enough, it was starting to show. I also have been really wanting to take some surf shots as well, so I did a double duty and brought my D80 with the 80-200mm f/4.5 mounted just in case.
I'd say I really only had a handful of keepers due to the fact that shooting a fully manual lens is a little tricky with moving subjects and nobody's surfing was really that impressive. C'mon guys!
Anyways, the one guy that was really tearing it up out there was this guy (sorry, don't know your name buddy) on his 9'+ longboard (or log). He was pretty good, and I could fully appreciate the way he was throwing that big board around off the top. For those of you who may not know, throwing some spray with a longboard takes a little more effort than it does with a shortboard.

Log face on the Pacific Crest Trail. The Omnibus Public Lands Management Act of 2009, Public Law No. 111-011, Section 1405, designated 24,100 acres of the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument as wilderness. The Soda Mountain Wilderness encompasses the rich biological and geological diversity in the mountains southeast of Ashland, Oregon. The new wilderness lies on the south side of the Medford District. The heart of the wilderness is the 5,720-foot high Boccard Point where the great basin meets three mountain ranges. The older Klamath Range comes up from the south while the much younger Siskiyou Range extends from the west. Jutting up from the north is the very young Cascade Range.
Additional information about the Soda Mountain Wilderness, and all the other BLM Wilderness areas in Oregon/Washington, is available online at:
Amazing--the old settler cabin still stands! These days it does not provide any protection from the weather.....

Civilian Alcan Highway construction workers are shown bracing logs while loading a truck. When the load is complete, the logs will be held in place with chains to prevent them from moving while in transit. As can be seen, in the boreal forest where the loggers are working, black and white spruce predominate. Both species grow very tall, but are not large in diameter.
Bill is the worker on the ground on the right. The location is unknown.
A different scene this time, of the same tree. I wonder if any of them felt some sense of loss, or viewed it only as a product.

Map location has no basis, except that it was a logging area
Wished I was using a zoom lens in this instance - the Contax G Sonnar 90mm on my GH2 was slightly too long for this.
Logging operation in late evening sun, old stables in the foreground. Yarder and processor on the top of the hill. Note skid lines going up the hill toward the red yarder on the landing at the top of the frame. This is a private timber sale. The ground will be replanted after the logging operation is done and will be a mature forest again in 10 to 15 years - a process called "sustainable logging." Near Elkton, Oregon, USA.
