Western Overland Excursion

The Ole’ Camry and me in front of Mt Hood … just passed 327,000 miles, yikes!   I have been trying to think of a more cool name for this trip than just “Road Trip”, though I will admit Western Overland Excursion might be a bit much? IDK, let me know I really don’t think that I have mentioned what the purpose of this trip is yet, at least not on my blog. I am …

Cascade Lakes

Robert and I took off the week before last and headed over to some of the Cascade lakes in the Three Sisters Wilderness area.  We Camped out that night, and spent the next day exploring the area. To much to see and do in just one day, but I can’t complain when my Tuesday is spent driving through backcountry highways, listening to Zepplin, and hiking around on a nice day. To more days like this. …

Home for the Weekend

Horseshoes I am back home for the weekend, I came back into town to visit some friends and to get some work done on my internship project. I took some time this afternoon walking through my grandparents grape arbor and garden. Ive been there hundreds of times before, I have become so familiar with that place; I could walk through it with my eyes closed. Even the horseshoes hanging on the old post in the …

On The Road Again

Taken from the drivers seat of my camry while trying to navigate a corner on HWY 66 I’m starting another job in a few weeks, something that’s back to what I really like. Working for my self, or at least thinking that I work for my self is much more rewarding. For the time though, I have about 3 weeks free, so I am going to try and take advantage of that time as much …

Ill get into this subject more later on, …

Girl at the Gum Wall

This is an image that I am pretty happy with.  I really do not have much experience with street photography, so I was happy when my film came back with a clear, focused and well exposed image here.  The girl was running to meet with the rest of her family down the hill.  I like the subject. I like the background, and I like how the rest of the elements in the image work together. …

Crater Lake

Crater Lake after sunset    I made this photograph after spending the day at crater lake.  Most of the park is still closed due to snow. I spent the afternoon walking around the lodge, checking out what trails and roads I could, and sitting on the hood of my car looking at maps of Oregon, planning out places I should go. This image was made using to graduated filters, a tobacco orange filter and a …

Undie Run 2012

Some happy guy, who I think was named Grant, running past me during the Undie Run at OSU last Friday.   The Undie Run was a crazy event.  Glad that I had a chance to enjoy watching a few hundred college kids run through the campus in their underwear…I remained fully clothed.  this weekend stop in Corvallis was pretty good. The weather was pretty regular Corvallis weather, but other than that, it was Corvallis at …
