Snow Day

The snow melted off pretty quickly, and this Vespa seems to have weathered it well.  I took this photo right outside where I work in NW Portland, where I've had my eye on this Vespa that has been parked on the street recently.

Under the I-405

I just got back from Australia and have a slew of photos to post.   For some reason, though, I'm compelled to post this one I took just today, in Portland.  I"m on a street photography kick, and red, white, black and grey seem to be my colors of choice.

White Antique Garage Doors

 

It was just the unexpected sunshine in winter. 

Exotic Views from my Doorstep

Everything I shot was within a block of where I work, yet it looks completely foreign.

Near Work, 10 am

I bought a new camera, and I was testing out a new lens.

Venice

I re-worked my Venice print to capture more of the nostalgic essence of mundane Italy.  The image has a little bit of vignetting and some subtle texture.

Triple Falls

I have a new item for sale:

Triple Falls 8x10 Fine Art Print

Hiking up the canyon from Oneonta Gorge this summer I was stunned to come upon this spectacular view of Triple Falls.  This is a lesser-known hike, but it's only two miles from the world-famous Multnomah falls.  I suspect that if this trail were in any other location besides the shadow of greater waterfall, it would be regionally famous.  As it is, only people who have lived in Oregon for years know about this spectacular hike that takes you in a loop to see several amazing waterfalls.

Red: an Underwater Photograph

Hollywood

These photographs were all taken within moments of each other.

Hollywood Theater, Portland, Oregon.

The Racetrack, Death Valley

Nobody knows for sure how the rocks move across the mud flat.  You can walk the trail back towards its source but you can't find it.

Bicyclist, Alberta Street

Pyramid Lake, Nevada

London

I don't sell this one because it's not very sharp.  I still love it though.

Fruit Stand, Sayulita, Mexico 2010

Light Leaks in Sayulita

This light leak was unintentional.  Other frames were ruined, but I liked how the light leak framed the surfer in this shot.  The colorful light leaks at the bottom of the frame echo some of the accents in the image.
