Oregon

This collection is a heartfelt ode to Oregon, a state that has captivated me with its enthralling blend of natural wonders, from the commanding peaks to the enchanting woodlands and serene shores. Entranced by its contrasting climates and captivating charm, I strive to immortalize Oregon’s unique allure through evocative photographs. Immerse yourself in my gallery, and let the bewitching beauty of Oregon’s diverse landscapes stir your soul.

Stormy weather up in the Blue Mountains.

The West Rim.

The clouds cleared and I realized where I was.

Sometimes only big things can change, or end you.

Sometimes the sun comes out just for you.

Gold reflections.

Old Immigrant Hill Road in autumn.

A trickling stream slowly flows by.

At the wildlife viewing area near North Powder, Oregon.

Destroyed Habitat

Moisture accumulating on subfreezing surfaces.

Or, it goes to La Grande.

Fall is barely over and snow is already starting to cover the mountain tops.

Dinner on the beach.

Wallowa Lake in the sunlight.

Shot from the Deadman Pass Lookout. It’s the strato-volcano all the way on the left when ya can see ’em.

Along the Pacific Ocean.

Clear Water and Fresh Air

Those iconic falls minus all of the people.

Low afternoon sunlight.

A beautiful winter sunset up on Cabbage Hill.

A Bald Point Sunset.

Painted Hills is part of the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument.

Enjoy things while you can.

High speed driving?

Over near La Grande, Oregon.

Erosion and contrast.

A fuzzy memory.

On a cloudy day.

In amazing Oregon.

Sometimes there just isn’t enough color.

An alpine lake in winter.

I spend a lot of time exploring areas my husband works in. La Grande, to Joseph, to Nampa, to Granite, to The Dalles, to Portland, to Tri-Cities, to Walla Walla, to ?????, and everywhere in between!
