Mount Washington is a deeply eroded volcano in the Cascade Range of Oregon. Made mostly of mafic (rich in magnesium and iron) volcanic rock like subalkaline basalt and basaltic andesite, it has a volcanic plug occupying its summit cone and numerous dikes.
The wilderness area is not heavily used, though it has a number of hiking trails. Wildlife is sparse in the region. Vegetation is mostly limited to pines and shrubs.
With an elevation of 7,795 feet (2,376 m) above sea level Mount Washington is located in Deschutes and Linn counties.
This image was taken on the east side of the mountain which has a different look than the more popular north side images.
A slide restoration which brings us back to Washington in October 1971. It's a great selection of cars parked up.
Washington Square Park in the heart of Greenwich Village, New York City. The arch, constructed of white Tuckahoe marble, stands 77 feet tall and was fashioned after Paris's 164-foot-tall Arch de Triomphe. Towering in the background, at right, is One Fifth Avenue, a beautiful Art Deco building where I used to stay whenever I ventured into the Village.
The Washington Monument, designed in the simple shape of an ancient Egyptian obelisk, was built in honour of George Washington. Constructed between 1848 and 1884 it was the tallest structure in the world at the time of completion, until the construction of the Eiffel Tower in France in 1889. The monument however remains the world's tallest stone structure and the world's tallest obelisk, standing 554 feet 7 11/32 inches (169.046 m) tall. It has an aluminum apex, which at the time of casting was the largest piece of aluminum in the world with Aluminum being relatively unknown having a value similar to silver. The slight change in shading of the marble at 46m (150ft) came from a halt in construction between 1854 and 1877 due to lack of funds and the civil war with construction eventually resuming from a different source of stone. National Mall, Washington DC, United States of America. Took this shot this evening, so its a rare post for me to share the day it was taken!

I wasn't sure exactly how to level this. With the ground? With the leaning house? I chose the former.
I was also unsure if I could make this work with the 270mm lens. But thankfully the road was wide and I had time.
There was a great deal of wind too. Like a lot. And maybe some of that translates to the image. But I wanted to take the photo and the wind was part of the experience. What was I supposed to do? Not photograph? Ridiculous.

The sun came and went, but mostly faded in and out of varying grays. Once in a while, the rocks would catch it and they would shine.

Autumn golden sunset (with a bit of smoke).
The US Pacific Northwest contributes a huge amount of the nation’s produce. Harvest season - Autumn or Fall if you prefer - is also a time of wildfire smoke impacting the human, animal & plant life of this area.
Washington grows 8B pounds (3.63B kg) of the 11B pounds of US apples produced in 2025 & has been the leading apple-growing State since the early 1920s.
In fact, WA leads also in pears, raspberries & blueberries - and has a significant grape harvest.

The classic design of architect David Burnham of the elegant Union Station in Washington DC can be seen in the this image with this corridor of Bethel white granite from Vermont archways that lead ones eye to the end. Once swampland to the east of Capitol Hill, a joint effort of the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) and the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad (B&O) it opened in 1907 and was completed in 1908 in beautiful neoclassical Beaux-Arts architecture with many Greek and Roman elements.

It was a good day for Mountains yesterday. These are located South of Mt. Baker. I'm sorry I don't know the name of them.
