The Bingen Gap, Columbia River, Early March 2024 by Gary L. Quay

21

This is Oregon and Washington's Rain Shadow effect demonstrated. The light on the water shows the sun breaking through the clouds over Hood River a few miles downstream while a wall of water loomed over the western gorge. I took the picture from an overlook near Mosier, Oregon.

On the Hill, Baskett Slough by Gary L. Quay

20 2

I was out with Glen Bledsoe and Christopher Taylor on Saturday to do some panoramas at the Baskett Slough near Salem, Oregon. It was a bit hot, and I was a bit dry, but a good time was had by all. I took a few digital pictures while I was there too.

Camera: Nikon D810

Lens: 28mm Zeiss Distagon ZF2.

The Columbia River at The Dalles, Oregon, April 2021 by Gary L. Quay

25 5

The Columbia River is downright lazy as it runs past The Dalles, Oregon. This was not always the case. Prior to the Bonneville Dam, just upriver from this area was a water-churning, boulder infested, smash-your-boat-to-pieces navigation hazard called the "Three Mile Rapids." Other natural, doom invoking geological nightmares were the Long Narrows, and the Short Narrows (also known as Fivemile Rapids, and Tenmile Rapids) where the mighty Columbia essentially flipped on its side, with all of the fluid dynamics that it entails. Also just up river is Celilo Falls, which is now buried beneath the waters held back by The Dalles Dam.

I am a big fan of The Dalles, and Wasco County, Oregon in general. I miss living nearby.

Camera: Nikon D300 (infrared conversion)

Lens: Vintage 20mm Nikkor.

Bridge of the Gods Panorama, Winter 2020 by Gary L. Quay

28 9

I took this with the Twirly Camera before I got it repaired. I like the picture, especially the way the picture is bent around a center axis. It isn’t suitable for selling due to the shuttering of the turret as the lens turned. The camera, however, is repaired, and so I hope to make more images like this one.

Thor's Well by Dave Koch Photo

26 2

Located at Cape Perpetua Thor's Well is a bowl-shaped hole that is the result of a collapsed sea cave. At high tide, the bowl fills up and sprays sea water everywhere- and then the sea sucks it all back down and out into the ocean again. As you can see, the surf was pretty high, so I did not get too close to the opening.

Latourell Falls, October 2024 by Gary L. Quay

33 1

I'm not entirely happy with this one. I'm posting it to see if anyone disagrees. There was a lot of flare in the waterfall area, but I managed to clean it up a bit. The overall effect is a little too crunchy. I may revisit it at some point.

Camera: Hasselblad 500CM

Lens: 50mm Zeiss Distagon

Looking Down from Seven Mile Hill by Gary L. Quay

25

I took this one early on in my digital escapades. I was getting used to the new format, and was learning what it could do. One of the things that I notice now that I have a D810 is that the colors on from the D300 are a little blocky. They sometmes need a little kick up in the luminiscence from the raw fiter. The D300 is 12 years old now, and converted to infrared, but it’s where I started in digital when I bought it in 2015.

Camera: Nikon D300

Lens: 24-120mm Nikon ED.

Old Wagon at Dalles Mountain Ranch, Washington by Gary L. Quay

19

This is from a few years ago. In the summer of 2016, Gaia and I went out to the Dalles Mountain Ranch to catch a glimpse of the Old West before in completely vanishes into the soil. I like this old wagon, but with cement blocks under the wheels, it will never make a great picture, so that gives me the freedom to play with it a little. I added some Orton Effect for, well… effect.

Camera: Nikon D300

Lens: 300mm Tamron with a 2x teleconverter.

East Fork of the Hood River, October 2020 by Gary L. Quay

23 2

On the way to Parkdale, Oregon, the road crosses over the East Fork of the Hood River, which carries water from the glaciers of Mount Hood, and gives the town of Hood River its name. I have taken pictures here before, but the sheer number of power lines that pass over this spot makes the cleanup a bit daunting. Isn’t Photoshop amazing? I removed 15 power lines. Was it worth the time? I think so.

Lens: 28mm Zeiss Distagon ZF2.

Mount Hood from the Dee Highway, Infrared by Gary L. Quay

Gaia and I were out and about today, roaming in the area south of Hood River. It’s a place that I consider more my home than anywhere esle besides where I was born. Living there for those short four years was a true blessing, and I hope to go back once I retire.

Not much left of Mt Hood’s glaciers this year.

Camera: Nikon D810

Lens: Vintage 35mm Nikkor with a Hoya R72 filter.

The exposure was 8 seconds at F16.

The View from Cape Horn, Columbia Gorge, Washington by Gary L. Quay

32 2

This was my first attempt at landscape photography since the shelter in place order was given due to the pandemic. Truth be told, I’m going a little nuts being cooped up in the house all of the time, but it’s better than catching the virus. Luckily, we don’t have to go very far to take pictures here.

Due to the location of the sun, this was a tricky picture to get without flare. I used a polarizer, and a 3 stop split neutral density filter, and was unable to use a lens hood. The angle of the sun, and the new spring foliage add to the rather extreme greens in the picture. I may tone them down at some point. I may not.

Lens: 28mm Zeiss Distagon F2.

The Rowena Loops, April 2019 by Gary L. Quay

These are the Rowena Loops on the Historic Columbia River Highway. The road was built that way because the chief engineer on the project planted his feet on the idea that no grade would be more than 5%. That decision, along with the views and stonework along the road, makes it one of the most beautiful roads in the world.

From Crown Point # 3 (Neg Scan) by Gary L. Quay

60 17

I decided to work on a picture I posted about 9 years ago, back when I had a functioning darkroom. I usually replace the originals on Flickr, rather than posting new versions, but the original was a scan of the print, and this is of the negative, and I wanted to leave both up for posterity.

This was taken with my 760mm SK Grimes lens fitted with a red # 25 filter on 8x10 Ilford FP4+.

Since I had two negs to process, I tried two different methods to get the sky to print easily next to the shaded foreground. The first method was to try divided D23: 4 minutes in the developer and 3 minutes in the alkalie bath. The negative came out splotchy, and completely unusable. Since one was ruined, I had to try something more fool-proof. I used Kodak HC110 and semi-stand development. This seems to largely have done the trick. The sky requires a little burning in, but not much.

Camera: Deardorff 8x10.

Lens: 760mm SK Grimes with red # 25 filter.

Film: Ilford FP4+ developed in Kodak HC110 semi-stand at 22:15 minutes.

Hawthorne Bridge at Night 4x5 # 2 by Gary L. Quay

58 4

I took this picture as part of my Night Shift series, which ran from 2007 through 20011. All of the pictures were made with large format film cameras (preferably 8x10), and all while I worked the graveyard shift.

This is my favorite spot to take pictures on the Eastside waterfront. I especially like it on the wee hours of the morning when the water has flown undisturbed for hours, and lays below Portland like a mirror. This image was taken at around 4:00 AM. Tired yet?

Color films can shift red during long exposures. I sometimes let the red stay.

I don’t normally go for off-kilter photosm however I kind of like this.

Soft Focus Cherry Trees in the Eastern Columbia Gorge, Washington by Gary L. Quay

I notice that when I get a new toy, I tend to overdo the effects that it creates. In this case, it’s a Lensbaby Velvet 56. It creates some serious soft focus effects, and a slight bit of swirly bokeh at the edges.

Starvation Creek Falls in the Columbia Gorge is one of my favorite spots, but it’s difficult to capture the the falls in all of its glory in one picture.. It’s not because it’s impossible. There is just too much of it. The picture gets too busy. So, here’s part of the falls. More of it later.

Little Butte, Pine Grove, Oregon by Gary L. Quay

I posted a film version of this a few years ago.

Camera: Nikon D300

Lens: 24-120mm Nikon ED

Rowena Rocks! November 2021 by Gary L. Quay

23

One does not come upon a pile of rocks, and think "I'd like to take a picture of that." But in this case, I did just that.

This is a film version of a picture I posted last month. There is something very satisfying about having a film image work out this well.

View this on a computer monitor. It won't look nearly as good on a phone.

Camera: Hasselblad 500CM

Lens: 50mm Zeiss Distagon

Film: Kodak E100
