Portland has some cool buildings. Here’s a shot from a street-level perspective looking up at KOIN Tower, a 35-story Neo-Art Deco beauty...third tallest skyscraper in the city.

Happy Truck Thursday! An appropriate truck and setting given the weather most of the country has been experiencing! This surplus military truck was captured in the St.John's neighborhood of Portland, Oregon by my son Ian on one of his daily runs..

I discovered this old hauler in a driveway in North Portland (PDX) . Lots of traffic and no place to pull over, so this shot was the best available. HTT!

Happy Fence Friday! Detail of the amazing hand made fence on SE Division Street in Portland (PDX), Oregon.Once again,it,s hard to imagine how much timme and effort went into this fence, gate and wall!

Jehu was in the June edition of PDX Magazine! She's such a goof, I swear. You'd think we couldn't afford a car, because we spend all our money on video games. >.<

For my vacation I went to Portland, Oregon. I wanted to take full advantage of the different architecture and diversity in models so I held a casting call.

 

Justin contacted me after the casting call ended, but I made an effort to book with him since he's got a great look for the 70's theme I had in mind.

 

I've been doing a lot of 50's lately and, though I love the mid-century, wanted to change things up.

 

Though I don't like to glamourize smoking (I abhor it) I felt it was appropriate for the concept of a 70's drug pusher. That leather jacket is mine and I wore it practically everyday while in Portland's brisk weather.

 

The real challenge was lighting. Since I was travelling I didn't bring my brollys or my auxillary lights. Just a single lonely strobe. Thank goodness I had the setting sun on my side.
