Central Oregon Mountain Magic

Two of the Three Sisters looked so majestic on this afternoon that I couldn't resist pulling over to take a closer look. This is Middle and North Sister, and they were doing a fine job of holding back the clouds that were blowing in from the west, keeping Central Oregon in the clear. Such a beautiful afternoon!

Sunday Morning

Nothing better for Sunday than a peaceful morning and a beautiful sunrise to start the day. The geese flying over Central Oregon's Three Sisters made the only sound around. (The watermark is for copyright protection and will not be on the printed photograph.)

Metolius River In Winter

I arrived in the early afternoon on a 15°F day in January to check out the snow along Central Oregon's Metolius River. It was so cold that steam was rising from the river, and so cold that I could only stay out there for 15-20 minutes before my hands were so cold that I couldn't tell if I was pressing the shutter, even with gloves on! But what a glorious day! (The watermark is for copyright protection and will not be on the printed photograph.)

Lake Billy Chinook In Spring

Snowing hard in the Oregon Cascades on this April day caused lots of drama in the Central Oregon skies. This view from a cold and very windy Lake Billy Chinook near Culver. (The watermark is for copyright protection and will not be on the printed photograph.)

Pristine Sparks Lake (Vertical)

Snow-covered South Sister is the star in the early evening on this day in the Oregon Cascades. Hoped for calm weather and interesting clouds, but instead found wind and a clear blue sky. This 8-second exposure calmed the lake and helped to create some sweet reflections and deep blue colors. (The watermark is for copyright protection and will not be on the printed photograph.)
