There are lots of photo opportunities beyond waterfalls in the Columbia Gorge region. There are two mountains that show up, Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams, although certainly Mt. Hood is the better known and every photographer wants at least one good photograph to add to their collection. There are two lakes(Trillium and Clear) that are recommended for getting photographs of Mt. Hood as part of the composition (hopefully reflections). Plus, there are lots of wineries, orchards, a couple of lavender fields and an alpaca farm to keep any healthy photographer on vacation very happy. Enjoy the variety!
Thanks so much to the friends who made this post possible. It is a blessing to have good friends 'show up' with enthusiasm, excitement and cameras! Certainly, shooting with them and with Cory in Redmond has added a richness to our travels that will be treasured for years to come. If my mother were alive she would go over this post again and again. She would call about mid-morning and chuckle that she was not done yet. She had the privilege of meeting everyone except David. She would remind me how lucky I was to have friends such as these. She would be right, of course! Thank you.
