Covering the Bases 
 
Lincoln City, Oregon 
 
You watch my back, I'll watch yours. Or maybe I'll just be the first to spot the next food source and beat you to it.

Ocean Flight 
 
Lincoln City, Oregon 
 
A raven flying along the beach looking for goodies exposed by the receding tide.

Futile Gesture 
 
Cascade Head, Oregon 
 
Hair-like roots from an uprooted pine. They seem to be still trying to draw in moisture to sustain growth in the downed tree.

Sign Language 
 
Cascade Head, Oregon 
 
When I see a curved tree like this it always makes me wonder what event happened in its youth that affected it and not the trees around it. Maybe a moose stepped on it when it was just a sapling.

Wet Fire 
 
Cascade Head, Oregon 
 
I was struck by how much this photo looks like a partly burned forest with smoke still moving through the trees. Yet it is just the bare understory of a dense forest in fog.

Dark Trail 
 
Cascade Head, Oregon 
 
Getting up early on a foggy, rainy day to go hiking is a good way to insure some solitude on the trail--and some nice moody photographs as well.

The Undiscovered Country 
 
Fogerty Beach, Oregon 
 
I'm not that into people photography, but sometimes an image with people in it has too much to say to be ignored. Does it still count as street photography if you're on a beach?

Grapes of Wrath 
 
Willamette Valley, Oregon 
 
With apologies to John Steinbeck, I had to use this title since these grapes look like they're about to experience some rough treatment from Mother Nature.

Grape Mosaic 
 
Willamette Valley, Oregon 
 
We traveled through Oregon wine country on our way to the coast yesterday. I love the mosaic patterns the rows of grape vines make on the rolling hills.
