This is from a few years ago. It’s a different angle on the famous red barn in Pine Grove, Oregon, near Hood River.
I’ve never been able to get the classic picture of this barn. You have to trespass to get it, and I tend to respect the property owners’ wishes.

The sun was a tad bright when I took this picture. Who’s afraid of a little lens flare?

Revisiting some pictures fron 2022. The eastern Columbia Gorge catches on fire quite often. This is the aftermath of one fire, and of where the firefighters stopped it. I took this one near sunset.

I saw this just outside The Dalles, Oregon one autumn day, and wondered for a moment just what’s in that building.
I wish Flickr would get its maps correct.

We went out to Maryhill to pick up some wine, and drove home on the Oregon side. Just west of Rowena, there are some lovely white oak trees that are thick with lichen. I wondered how that would look in black and white, and then I threw a Lensbaby into the mix. It got deliciously creepy.
Winter is When the Lensbabys come out.

I have begun hiking regularly in the Columbia Gorge after years of sporatic treks. I hiked to Upper Latourell Falls this morning, and developed the film when I got home. It was a film-only hike, just like old times. I did not take the digital camera along, so I was left with my old method of a handheld meter, which would have served me well if I would have let it. I second-guessed the meter, thinking that the scene was 5 stops below full sun. It turns out that it was 7 stops. Luckily, I bracketed. This was an 11-second exposure.
Camera: Hasselblad 500CM
Lens: 50mm Zeiss Distagon with compendium shade and a yellow # 12 Wratten filter.

I stayed in Ilwaco, Washington in late November in order to be at Cape Disappointment for the King Tide. On my evening walk, I took some pictures of some boats in the marina. I have not had much success doing night photogrphy with a digital camera, however, these turned out pretty good.

We had some rare breaks in the cloud cover a couple of weeks ago - not a whole, sunny day, mind you, but entire minutes that weren't gray and brooding. I happened to be out in the Gorge at the time, so I took a few pictures near Sheppard's Dell where I liked the interplay of light, rock, and trees.

I almost made it down to the bottom of the falls that day, but there was quite an ice buildup on the trail. After I fell once, I decided to cut my losses, and head up to the top to take this picture.

I was chasing a sun break through the Columbia Gorge, and was not catching up. I decided to consolidate my losses, and get some pictures of the closest waterfall, and then go home. I was taking pictures of Bridal Veil Falls, when I noticed that the color temperature of the scene had changed. I took this picture, and then turned around. A new sun break had broken through the clouds behind me, and it was close enough to sunset that it was brilliant yellow. I packed up my camera, and made it back to the parking lot was quickly as I could. The light was intense through the dark clouds. I headed up to Crown Point, and the light faded just as I was reaching the top.
Well, damn.

I went to Washington with Glen Bledsoe and Christopher Taylor on Saturday to get some prime fall foliage picutres. I used up 3 sheets of 8x10 slide film, and then got out the digital. This is, of course, one of the digital pictures.
This is just behind the Cedar Creek Grist Mill. The trough in the forground is for getting water to the mill.

I was in Bend in July for the Bend Summer Festival where I took part as a vendor, and I managed to make some stops on the way home. One of them was at Smith Rock where I used the Hasselblad flexbody with both a film back and a digital back. This one was with the film back. I'm happy with the way it looks.

I have been fighting with my 8x10 Deardorff over the last few weeks. It seems to have picked up a few more light leaks. All of my pictures that I developed today were ruined except for this one. This one seemed to have escaped the carnage.
I had to dust off the front and back tilt skills to pull this one off without having to put the exposure time into the reciprocity failure zone. It seems to have worked. Over all, I'm happy with it.

I took this in March, just as the 2020 Covid-19 Pandemic was beginning to close the nation down. I used the camera that I have been referring to as the ”Twirly Camera”, because the lens spins on a turret to get the wide angle. It creates some interesting effcts, some of which are welcome. It doesn’t do nearby objects very well, but if you get it just right, objects like the guardrails in this picture will seem to splay out before you. I like it.

The Eastern Columbia Gorge is where I go when I am sick of the unbroken cloud cover of the Portland area. Fluffy clouds are the best. Ominous clouds are even better. These are a mixture of the two. Throw in a train, and we're cookin'.

We were in Mosier to photograph the orchards and wildflowers, but the sky was an unpleasing blank, light blue with no clouds, fluffy or otherwise, to give the landscapes some character. Days like that are made for infrared. I like the way the sky turned black in this one.

This is from a few years back. It's one of my favoite spots, but it's a hard subject to get a good picture of. It's prone to high winds and blank skies, neither of which are conducive to photography. I got lucky on this particular day.

Seasons of change. Spring and Autumn are interesting for photography. I wasn't able to get out much this fall, so I don't have many pictures to show for it. I always regret missing peak foliage, but it wasn't to be this year. So, I present to you a spring picture earlier this year.
This is the Zigzag River near Mt. Hood.

Pandemic Apocalypse Photo Expedition into the neighborhood. I did this because I can’t go anywhere else. Seeing the world through a narrower field of vision can be kind of like writing a sonnet. Poets say (I have called myself a poet in the past, but I haven’t written many since college) that the rigid structure of a sonnet can bring out greater creativity because it forces one to think in different ways. Gaia and I were out for a walk today, and I took the infrared camera. She uses the wheelchair as a walker until she can’t walk anymore, then set sits down, and I push her in the wheelchair. It has extended our range quite a bit.

I made this image early last spring before the leaves were on the trees. The light was not very dramatic, but the clouds were. Mount Hood, partly obscured, is in the backgraound.
Yes, I am still using film.
Camera: Hasselblad 500CM
Lens: 50mm Carl Zeiss
Film: Fuji Velvia 100
I color corrected this and replaced the original 7/17/20. Something about it was nagging me.

I was out in the Hood River area a few weeks ago, searching for the right light, and something to point my cameras at. I managed one of those things, and the right light was not one of them. So, I made due, and got out the Twirly Camera at Dead Point Creek near Hood River, Oregon. I was using very slow film, and it was dark. The slowest shutter speed on a Noblex is 1/15th sec. To get longer exposures, you have to put it on Manual, and keep that lens turret spinning until you have the right time. In this case, the lens spun around 45 times.
Camera: Noblex 06/150
Film: Rollei RPX 25 developed in 510-Pyro

Catching the brief fall foliage season can be a challenge for someone with a day job. Peak color comes and goes within about 2 weeks, sometimes less. We got lucky this year that we didn’t have the annual wind storm that brings down all of the leaves way too soon.
This is the Columbia Gorge as seen from the overlook at Cape Horn on the Washington side.
Camera: Nikon D810
Lens: 24-85mm Nikon

I developed it in Rodinal, which gave the negative it's trademark grainy punch.

It took me a long time to figure out where this was, but I eventually landed on Hug Point near Cannon Beach on the Oregon Coast. The Oregon Coast is imfamous for its cloud cover, and that particular day wasn’t budging. A wise photographer friend once tole me, “Every day is the perfect day to be taking pictures”, so I got out my camera despite the dreary weather, and took this picture, along with quite a few more.
Camera: Hasselblad 500CM
Lens: 50mm Carl Zeiss
Film: Fuji Pro 400H

I love the area around Rowena Crest in the Eastern columbia Gorge. I have been getting back into hiking this year, and while the weather allowed, I was making the occasional excursion to the Rowena or Memaloose areas, and lugging one of the "Blads" with me on the trail. This picture shows a barely visible trail leading toward the nearby slope.

We wanted to escape the omnipresent cloud cover in the Portland area, so we made a pilgrimage to the eastern Columbia Gorge, where the forecast predicted sun breaks. We were not disappointed. The Columbia River was calm, and the sun peaked through the clouds to the south.
Camera: Hasselblad 500CM
Lens: 120mm Zeiss Sonnar
Film: Ilford XP2 developed by Citizens Photo in Portland

I had the Twirly Camera out at Rowena Crest in April. I am glad that I did not miss the balsamroot season this year, and especially glad that I switched back to slide film. Negative film just can't do this.
Camera: Noblex 06/150
Film: kodak E100

I took the new digital camera back out for its maiden voyage today at White River Falls. It's a Hasselblad CFV 100C, and I was using it on the Flexbody. I'm impressed with the image quality, and the image size is nothing to sneeze at either. I cropped this one about 1/4 of the frame, and it is still 35" across at 300 dpi.. It was a gray day at the falls, but that gave me the opportunity to get a wide range of tones.
I'm slowily getting used to how it works, but I'm certain that there is a menu of opions that I haven't yet found. For instance, I was able to list the lenses I use with it, but I can't find a way to select one as the one currently on the camera. I couldn't find it in the manual.
Camera: Hasselblad Flexbody with a CFV 100C digital back
Lens: 40mm Zeiss Distagon.

It was a bright day, and the sun was just over the hill ahead of me on the road. It was a tough situation in which to be pointing a camera, but I did anyway.
This is a film version of a picture I posted last week. My darkroom is up and running, although it still needs some work, and a proper sink.
Camera: Hasseblad 500CM
Lens: 80mm Zeiss Planar
Film: Ilford PanF+ developed in 510 Pyro
