I have tried repeatedly to get a picture of clouds and sun on the hills on the Washington side of the Columbia Gorge just west of The Dalles. I may have come close to getting it right this time. I took the picture from the Oregon side.

Lens: 24-85mm Nikon

Gaia and I were out and about on Halloween, trying in vain to catch a sunrise at one of Oregon’s spectacular, and on that day, packed with people viewpoints near Sandy. One of the bastards parked across the entrance to the parking lot at the viewpoint, and very few of the photographers were wearing masks, despite the worsening pandemic. We didn’t stop. Instead, we continued down into the Powell Valley, following the sun into the valley fog. When we made it to Lusted Road (my favorite road name in the area), the sun poked out of the mist, and I found a place to park, and took a few pictures, and flavored this one with the Orton Effect.

I spent al little time at Little Zigzag Creek this morning, before the temperature hit 100º. There was occasional cloud cover interspersed with brillient sunlight mingling with the trees. It was a good day to be on the slopes of Mount Hood.

 

I have been having trouble printing pictures lately. I have to lighten them up quite a but from how they first look, despite having calibrated my printer, and, I thought, my monitor, (although I had to do it based on how my prints look. Well, I finally got my ColorMunki working properly. It turns out that my computer does not like special characters in the file names of the icc profiles. I removed the underscore in the name, and it worked flawlessly. Not I can print with wild abandon.

 

Camera: Nikon D810

Lens: 28mm Zeiss Distagon ZF2.

Doctor: "Now, what seems to the the problem?"

Patient: "I'm seeing spots."

Doctor: "Spots? Hmmmm? When do you seem them?"

Patient: "When I look through my camera."

Doctor: "Do you think the camera may have something to do with that, and not with your eyes?"

Patient: "There's too much spray to open my eyes unless I'm looking through the camera. The damn place is windy, and right on the ocean."

Doctor: "Your eyes are open now. Do you see spots?"

Patient squints through his glasses: "Yes. Smaller ones."

Doctor: "Get out of my office."

2018 was a banner year for my photography. I was living in the Columbia Gorge, I was starting to het the hang of digital cameras, and it was a dramatic Autumn that year. I had a camera at the ready daily.

 

I love it when a river gets quiet, and still. On rare occasions in the Eastern Columbia Gorge, the river adopts a mirror sheen, and reflects the semi-arid hillsides, and anything else that sits in the water, like a sternwheeler.

The wind was clocked at 85 mph at one point, and the icy chill stung my face, but I got a few pictures, and even hiked up to the top of the falls.

I have made a special effort to photograph Ruthton Point for a decade. Someday, I will get it right. I don’t know how, but the distant hills are a little out of focus. It’s possible that the depth of field scale on my lens is not entirely accurate.

I happened past Ruthton Point in Hood River, Oregon as a rare break in the clouds opened up to the west. Sunlight flooded the Columbia Gorge lke water breaking through a dam, and a rainbow appeared behind me as I fought to keep the driving rain off of the lens. I managed to get it dry enough for one of the 20 or so pictures I took.

 

Camera: Nikon D810

Lens: 24-85mm Nikon D

 

This is one of the pictures featured on my website page about the Hood River area.

This is Little Zigzag Falls near Rhododendron, Oregon. I can't believe it took me this long to go there.

 

I have seen this referred to as Little Zigzag Creek and Little Zigzag river at various places. The map says it's a river. Hiking websites call it a creek.

I am having summer thoughts this week.

 

This is Punchbowl Falls (a different one) near Hood River, Oregon. I took this picture in 2018 when I lived in the area. I would like to go back there this summer if at all possible.

 

This is one of the pictures featured on my website page about the Hood River area.

 

Note the excellent view of columnar basalt in the picture.

I've been to Florence, Oregon once. It was in 2000. I drove down there on a lark, and took some pictiures of this bridge, and I went to Coos Bay to take pictures of the dunes. I had only one lens for my Hasselblad at the time, so I made the best of it.

 

Camera: Hasselblad 500CM

Lens: 80mm Zeiss Planar

Film: Ilford FP4+

 

This image is featured on the Oregon Coast page on my website.

We spent a day on the Oregon Coast in early July, and managed to stick around for the sunset. Due to having to get up early for work, my bedtime is 9:00. The sunset finally let up at about 9:30, and we still had a 2 hour trip home. I think it was worth it.

From February of this year. I used the Twirly Camera for this, but it turns out that it needs some repair. The gears are grinding a bit, and the negatives turn out uneven. There’s a place that fixes them in the midwest. I'm sending it there soon.

This negative has sat in a binder for 21 years, but I got it out today, and decided to see what I could make of it. I chose to keep it subtle, and as close as possible to what I saw there. I think the picture was taken in early June.

Multnomah Falls, in all its glory, bledecked in a golden gown, and crowned with a cloud, holds court at Benson Bridge on high.

We finally had a chance to get out into Terra Incognito last weekend. We went out to support some business owners we know in the Parkdale area, and took the opportunity to have a nice drive. We ended up in Sherman County where this lovely scene presented itself. It was one of the bluest skies I have seen.

Mosier, Oregon sits at a low point in a fold in the Earth's crust. It's quite the geological wonder. At this spot, just west of the town, the anticline splits into three tiers. I took this from about a mile away using a really long lens.

 

Camera: Nikon D810

Lens: 150-600mm Tamron

I took this a few years ago. I still miss living in the Columbia Gorge. I want to revisit this spot this fall with an 8x10 camera.

The road between Rowena Crest and The Dalles is one of my favorite places. I try to go there whenever I can. I took this picture last summer near the crest.

This is the view from Ruthton Park in Hood River. It’s one of the Columbia Gorge’s best views. I was there with the film cameras on a somewhat snowy day, and got a good one.

I have tried many times to get a good picture with the Spouting Horns at Depoe Bay. The Spouting Horns are holes in the rocky shoreline that lead to a short tunnel that opens to the ocean. At high tide, the waves build until a bigger one comes along, and hits that tunnel with force, and then water spouts from the holes. The sun happened to be at the right place to form a rainbow when I took this.

This is Starvation Creek Falls near Hood River in the Columbia Gorge. Its accessibility from the road makes it a prime spot for photography.

Gaia and I were out at the coast on Sunday to see if we could catch a sunset. We did. I haven't done many sunsets or sunrises lately. The pandemic has taken much of the wind out of my sails when it comes to being out in public. Way too many people still aren't paying attention to the guidelines, and it's dangerous for Gaia to be around people like that, even outdoors. So, everyone, please enable everyone, including folks with depressed immune systems, to enjoy the outdoors by masking up when near anyone not in your immediate household, and keep your distance. People can be infected when oudoors. To those of you who mask up, and follow the state's guidelines: Thank you very much. Your effors are much appreciated.

We finally went out to parts unknown after almost 3 months of pandemic lockdown. Parts of Oregon are opening, and it was important to spend some money helping out some struggling businesses. So, while we were at it, I got the camera out a few times.

 

The wind was howling, so it was difficult to get the wheat to sit still for the camera. I should have had the shutter speed higher, but it still looks good.

I saw these ships out on the river as I was leaving to go home. I stopped, and took some pictures, and two young women strolled up and asked about what the pylons were there for. I explained that they are the remains of canneries that used to line the river at Astoria. Then they asked about my photography. They seemed very pleasant to talk to, and showed a genuine interest in what I was doing. As they were about to continue on their way, one of them said, "Oh, and that's a nice sunset."

 

I turned to the west to see the beginnings of what turned out to be a spectacular sunset. The rest is history. I posted the sunset shot earlier.

It’s that dark, menacing cloud just above that gives this picture just a hint of doom amid the otherwise peaceful landscape.

I had the Lensbabies out for an afternoon on the town in Hood River today. I was looking for interesting compositions while we stopped at one of the downtown shops, and then got something to eat in the Heights. The downtown restaurants were mostly closed. I thought that it may have been due to the pandemic, but I found out later that there was a gas outage the affected a major portion of town. I didn't spend a lot of time out with the camera, so I only got this one image in town. I got a few more near Rowena later on.

 

Camera: Nikon D810

Lens: Lensbaby Double Glass with the f5.6 aperture disk.

I thought that there would be a good chance at a sunrise this morning, so I packed up the cameras, and headed for Crown Point. The road getting there was a bit, shall we say, mobile, because there have been landslides in the area, and a certain section of the road just before Crown Point is slowly sliding down the hillside a few inces a year, but other than that, it isn't a too harrowing drive. The sunrise did not disappoint. I present it here as I saw it.
