Oregon Travel: Salem

Government at work is like making sausage: You don’t really want to see how it’s done. Oregon’s capital city would like to challenge that notion.

Rusty Rodder by Paul Miller Somewhere out behind Harmony, Oregon. There’s the homestead, and then the ride. I was sincerely impressed. Considering the appearance, it might have been modified by a kid or two from yesterdays era, when the chrome was thick. Shot in manual, with a Canon 5D Markiii. Two 600ex-rt flashes were used, just for a tad bit of spunk, giving the rust bucket some well deserved sex appeal.

Hardcore Albacore

During Oregon’s albacore tuna season, Clay Archambault’s life is paint-stained Carhartt’s and finicky equipment, and long weeks at sea followed by relaxation with fellow fishermen in Newport’s South Beach Marina.

Wahclella Falls, Columbia River Gorge by Dean Artis Wahclella Falls is on Tanner Creek, near Bonneville Dam just 40 miles from Portland. It is a relatively easy two mile round trip hike. When we reached the falls, I noticed a nice vantage point atop a huge boulder where I took this photo. I very carefully scaled the large boulder even though my left arm was in a cast after elbow surgery.

Indian Sands by Maryanne Gobble  Self portrait at Indian Sands just north of Brookings, OR. Tripod, remote release, Canon t5i camera. I swear no one ever goes here. I just shot a whole series of color landscapes in the fog my last visit.
