Every month or so look for the Picture Pages post. Each one a thematic collection of pictures from the last months. Think of it like comfort food for the eyes, visual cornbread and honey, tomato soup and grilled cheese, warm homemade cookies… This first Picture Pages, in two parts, highlights a small sample of the amazing Oregon roads I ‘ve explored recently, perhaps you know some of them… Enjoy!
Mary's Peak, a hill climbed many times, in many moods, always happy at the top.
Keno Access Road, 25 miles of desolate beauty and what feels like the longest gradual climb in Oregon.
Dead Indian Memorial Road painting a purple path to home.
Great composition on these photos. The Dead Indian Memorial Road makes me smell the pine trees and smell the clean air. Very nice perspective:-)
Ren,
Thanks again! I’m working to improve the quality of the raw images so it requires less fine tuning of contrast and color on the windows photo.
Alex,
So few years, yet so much wisdom- you are a branch of a very seasoned tree whose roots have have travelled deep and far. And a tree whose trunk provided the frame for a beautiful wooden boat..
A wild yet calm spirt with a love for life.
Thanks!
