Mount Washington is a deeply eroded volcano in the Cascade Range of Oregon. Made mostly of mafic (rich in magnesium and iron) volcanic rock like subalkaline basalt and basaltic andesite, it has a volcanic plug occupying its summit cone and numerous dikes.
The wilderness area is not heavily used, though it has a number of hiking trails. Wildlife is sparse in the region. Vegetation is mostly limited to pines and shrubs.
With an elevation of 7,795 feet (2,376 m) above sea level Mount Washington is located in Deschutes and Linn counties.
This image was taken on the east side of the mountain which has a different look than the more popular north side images.
A slide restoration which brings us back to Washington in October 1971. It's a great selection of cars parked up.
Taken from the cog rail of Mount Washington in New Hampshire. This was during fall and there are varied fall colours on the mountains. Mount washington by itself has very little color to display. On a side not, it is officially the worst weather in the world.
A couple of weeks ago I got in my car and took a 4.5 hour drive to the Palouse Region of SE Washington. The Palouse is a region with crops all over rolling hills and many abandoned towns and farms along old dirt roads. I spent most of the day driving along the dirt roads and enjoying the countryside.
Orcas Island is the largest of the San Juan Islands, which are located in the northwestern corner of Washington state in San Juan County, Washington, United States.

In some rural areas old, seemingly abandoned cemeteries have recent and sometimes vaguely-marked (or just unmarked) graves. Their stones, when they have them, stand out in stark contrast to the faded and fallen stones of their grandparents.
The same is true for the decorations, including this angel in a bucket. It was dim and raining when I entered the cemetery, and I saw this statue from a distance. Until I was in position to take the photo, I thought it was an older angel. In this sort of older cemetery that would have been pretty rare.
But this was probably a gift from the living to the dead. A fairy-like angel with a lantern to watch over the departed. And a bucket of cement to stand up against the spring winds.

I wasn't sure exactly how to level this. With the ground? With the leaning house? I chose the former.
I was also unsure if I could make this work with the 270mm lens. But thankfully the road was wide and I had time.
There was a great deal of wind too. Like a lot. And maybe some of that translates to the image. But I wanted to take the photo and the wind was part of the experience. What was I supposed to do? Not photograph? Ridiculous.

Mount Washington is the highest peak in the Northeastern United States at 6,288.2 ft (1,916.6 m) and the most topographically prominent mountain east of the Mississippi River.
The Mount Washington Cog Railway (1869) ascends the western slope of the mountain, and the Mount Washington Auto Road climbs to the summit from the east. The mountain is visited by hikers, and the Appalachian Trail crosses the summit. Other common activities include glider flying, backcountry skiing, and annual cycle and running races such as the Auto Road Bicycle Hillclimb and Road Race.

With runaround complete, the L100 prepares to couple onto its train. The steeple for St. Joseph's German Catholic Church dominates the background.
Autumn golden sunset (with a bit of smoke).
The US Pacific Northwest contributes a huge amount of the nation’s produce. Harvest season - Autumn or Fall if you prefer - is also a time of wildfire smoke impacting the human, animal & plant life of this area.
Washington grows 8B pounds (3.63B kg) of the 11B pounds of US apples produced in 2025 & has been the leading apple-growing State since the early 1920s.
In fact, WA leads also in pears, raspberries & blueberries - and has a significant grape harvest.

Mount Baker glacier-covered andesitic stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc and the North Cascades of Washington in the United States. Mount Baker has the second-most thermally active crater in the Cascade Range after Mount St. Helens. About 30 miles (48 km) due east of the city of Bellingham, Whatcom County, Mount Baker is the youngest volcano in the Mount Baker volcanic field. While volcanism has persisted here for some 1.5 million years, the current volcanic cone is likely no more than 140,000 years old, and possibly no older than 80–90,000 years. Older volcanic edifices have mostly eroded away due to glaciation.
After Mount Rainier, Mount Baker has the heaviest glacier cover of the Cascade Range volcanoes; the volume of snow and ice on Mount Baker, 0.43 cu mi (1.79 km3) is greater than that of all the other Cascades volcanoes (except Rainier) combined. It is also one of the snowiest places in the world; in 1999, Mount Baker Ski Area, located 9 mi (14.5 km) to the northeast, set the world record for recorded snowfall in a single season—1,140 in (29 m; 95 ft).
Mount Baker is the third-highest mountain in Washington and the fifth-highest in the Cascade Range, if Little Tahoma Peak, a subpeak of Mount Rainier, and Shastina, a subpeak of Mount Shasta, are not counted. Located in the Mount Baker Wilderness, it is visible from much of Greater Victoria, Nanaimo, and Greater Vancouver in British Columbia, and to the south, from Seattle (and on clear days Tacoma) in Washington.

The classic design of architect David Burnham of the elegant Union Station in Washington DC can be seen in the this image with this corridor of Bethel white granite from Vermont archways that lead ones eye to the end. Once swampland to the east of Capitol Hill, a joint effort of the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) and the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad (B&O) it opened in 1907 and was completed in 1908 in beautiful neoclassical Beaux-Arts architecture with many Greek and Roman elements.
