The Green River Gorge is home to some neat trails.

This capture was taken in Washington State.

A different vantage spot of this treacherous gorge. Most of my shots were spoiled by copious mist spots on my lens but this spot was far enough back that it wasn't a total shower. I want to go back in summer to see if that pesky snow at the bottom will ever melt. It almost ate me alive when I was down there.

The wildflowers were in full bloom during our recent camping trip to the Hells Canyon region of Idaho, on the Oregon border.

I wish you could smell the sweet scent of lupine that filled the air.

Fog filled days playing hooky from work:-0

They keep getting better and better!

At this time of year in the Pacific Northwest the sun sets far south of this view. But this scene, over mountains in the Olympic National Forest, really caught my eye.

I've visited this spot a few times but am never satisfied. I think its the light posts. Maybe a pano shot would help.

Ein weiteres Highlight auf unserem Roadtrip entlang des Oregon Coast Highway war der Leuchtturm von Heceta Head, der sehr fotogen auf einer Landzunge thront. Leider erforderte es einige Geduld, bis er endlich einmal aus dem Küstennebel auftauchte.

Another highlight on our road trip along the Oregon Coast Highway was the Heceta Head Lighthouse, which sits very photogenically on a bluff. Unfortunately, it took some patience until it finally emerged from the coastal fog.

Refuel your own tank rookie. Flight lessons are pretty stressful. But with a view like this and a full moonrise who could complain?

The U.S. Coast Guard was running exercises on Chambers Bay while fisher folks tried for ling cod on the reef and golfers golfed on the greens.

The gray boat speeding through the fishing boats (far left) towards the protected ferry was the "bad guy". As he approached the group the orange boat closest to him swerved to face him, they ran directly at each other and shots were fired. A very exciting sideshow for my hike!

While in search of autumn in the PNW I drove through this tunnel. It had some very nice yellow trees next to it and that’s about as autumn as it gets.

Lovely green, lush ferns, trees and moss make my heart happy!

Throughout the day were these micro rain bursts that added such cool shadow effect on the landscape.
