This lovely purple Iris was solitarily sitting among some weeds on the street. The colors and beauty are very striking. Had some sun yesterday, now back to rain......

Looking through the grapevine on the McKenzie River in central Oregon..River is still flowing really fast. This river is so very beautiful and is surrounded by lava fields and hot springs.

This 1937 Mercedes 540KSpecial Roadster. "Allure of the Automobile" is really quite a car show...these are not only cars but works of art...sweeping lines, beautiful paint...no wonder people fell in love with cars...
From the Portland Art Museum catalog:
A sporty silver beauty. Gross writes: "The 540K had presence, panache and power, and it still exudes those qualities today." This one was a graduation gift to 19-year-old Baron Henning von Krieger from his mother, and later went to his sister, the glamorous Baroness Gisella von Krieger, then sat idly in a Connecticut garage for decades before being restored.

A bit late today as I got caught up with the mundane..this shot of the foot of the Teton's near Jackson Hole is one of my favs'..I love the ruggedness of the mountains and the fall colors.
Also wanted to thank everyone for the nice comments on the car and peacock doors. Have a fantastic Week!

Oregon seems to have a plethora of ancient barns that seem to be in a state of perpetual collapse. Here's one out in eastern Oregon that is a bit swayback. How many more winters until it's a pile of wood?

A swampy meadow near Little Crater Lake showing its fall golden color.

Somedays the light's just right, the color is beautiful and we happen to be there with a camera ready to go...
This close up of a poppy from Canon Beach seems electrified with the sun shining through it's petals. The purple blue inside is a crazy color don't you think...Best seen large
Canon Beach is fairly warm for the Oregon coast so they have many types of beautiful flowers growing up close to the little shops. Makes a beautiful town!

"Reflections of the past"
Looking like a painting, reflections in the red paint of this restored pickup show a country scene, a blue pickup against trees..
Won't be able to post for a couple of days, so wishing you all a fantastic weekend!

One of the cars from the Oregon "Cars at the Park" car show last saturday..I believe it is the rear fender of a 65 Mustang...Thank you for your comments...
Life getting back to normal tomorrow, but just found out that my husband was accepted to a 2 year intense MBA program..along with working 60+ hours a week it will be an interesting time I'm sure...

Well it must be spring in Oregon as it is partially hailing,raining, sunshining kind of a day..
So here is one of my early shots of Yellowstone, I just love the features reflected in the rocks here. What a fantastic spot..to bad it is a giant volcano, set one day to have a giant explosion! But for today, I will enjoy the beauty!
This was layers of rock that have erroded away over the years by the minerals..The sky reflected into it and brought out all these lovely colors...
Thanks everyone!

Going a bit different today with color and contrast, with this macro. What do you think?
Thank you all so much for your comments on the staircase and the well!

For Steve Jobs one year memorial I am once again featuring my tribute to this amazing, creative man who completely changed our world forever.
My own small memorial to a brilliant visionary who accomplished what so many aspire to.
Thank you Steve Jobs we will miss you!
All my best to your family.....

August 2011,
Nolan, 3 in a couple of months, runs up to every carved bear he sees and gives it a hug..Have to say I'm a proud grammie! Don't know about you but what happened to August? Wow what a busy time..Wishing everyone a safe and good week..

The bees are so happy that spring, or summer is finally here! They are all over the echinacea...Love the orange against the pinkish purple..
Will be offline for a bit, probably won't get to post until next week...
Happy Weekend everyone!

This angry mom sit protectively on top of her nest guarding a new batch of her children.
Wishing you all a Great weekend and Happy Friday!
Best viewed large as you can see the larva inside...

This single oak tree on a ridge overlooking the fields of grass and red clover on a beautiful, Sunny spring day...
"Perspective"

"Way out west"
A view of the canyons near John Day..Just love the sparseness and the rolling terrain..How the west used to be and still is in some parts of the country..
happy friday...

Love the elegant lines on this staircase that lead down to the main level of our stay in Madrid. The workmanship was outstanding and the building itself so light and airy!

Your Bio

A Pacific Northwest based freelance photographer specializing in nature shots, travel, and architecture.Always looking for a new spot to shoot as we travel, I try to find the story behind every picture looking for the soul of the building, person or landscape. These photos are all a snapshot in time, and maybe the only thing we will have left as time passes and views and places change.

Just a note about sales, each photo is a limited edition of only 50 prints each and will not be offered for sale again. Most of these photos are taken with a Canon 5D Mark II and are 21 MB in size. I have reduced them for uploading. All sales are guaranteed as well.
Thank you for your support!
Enjoy!

Our latest journey took us to Frankfurt, Lisbon, and all thoughout Spain, from extremadura, to Madrid, Toledo, Sevilla and down to Malaga and the coast. Seville is an amazing place as is Toledo and Trujillo. Looking forward to sharing some of these shots soon!
See you all behind the lens!

Indiana cries : "Broken Lives and Broken Dreams"
Part 1 of a series of photographs was taken on a journey through Southern Indiana over a 2 week period, I will be adding to the photographs here as the story unfolds. The economic story of southern and central Indiana is of an economy that has been so depressed for so long now that once thriving towns are now just ghosts of their former glory. These photos are meant to be moving and impactful, these were people's homes and lives, family's played here and grew. Please leave your comments below.

Views of the Pacific Northwest : Went out for a bit of a drive out to John Day National Fossil Beds last weekend...lots of rain so everything is still green. It was the most beautiful day and as the sun set over Bend the clouds started coming back in to make a glorius sunset. We drove through Spray, Madras, Redmond, Prineville, Dayville and a few others that are really in the country.
