Patagonia is one of those places that I’ve wanted to visit for quite some time now, and I was finally able to make the journey to Argentina and Chile to see the beauty of this incredible place firsthand. The landscapes and mountain peaks are simply incredible, and although Patagonia photography is a bit challenging at [...]

Oregon has had an impressive amount of rain this June, receiving 80% of the normal rainfall for the entire month within the first 4 days. This created some excellent late spring waterfall conditions. This image was taken deep in the gorge the day after some really heavy rain. It’s not an easily accessible location when the water [...]
We recently had a nice cold spell that dumped about 6-8 inches of fresh snow in the Columbia River Gorge. When this happens, it doesn’t stick around for too long, so you really have to get out there quickly.
We have had some rather unusual, and really cold weather this last week. Normally we get snow, sleet, and freezing rain all at about the same time.

Fall is my second favorite season with winter taking an easy first. I love rain and snow, and I’m fortunate enough to live in one of the best places on the planet. The shot above is from Woodland Washington’s “Cedar Creek Grist Mill”.

Took a short trip down to Redwood National Park in Northern California. It was my first time here, and I was fortunate enough to get some really nice foggy conditions in the Redwoods. The freshly bloomed Rhodies along with the fog really made for some amazing photographic opportunities. This particular image was my favorite from [...]
