I have on occasion been on the road and thought I’d share some photos of what I saw along the way. Photos by me, though on rare occasions I might accidentally post one taken by a family member but that got on my phone. #Photography
Sometimes it is easy to forget, but a rose bush has moments where it is fairly pretty without the, you know, rose. #MacroMonday #Photography
When walking through downtown Klamath Falls, Oregon it is important to look up. The snakes in the trees could pounce at any moment! #ColorADay #GreenSat #Photography

I'd want to say "awww, look at Bambi and his Mom," but that just makes me sad. Forget I mentioned it and look at the pretty picture. #Stunday #Photography
Sundown in downtown Jacksonville, OR The hustle and bustle of the 19th century gold mining town has been replaced by rows of buildings that can act as backdrops to a movie western without much modification (like maybe no neon signs) #UrbanGaze #Photography
This summer in Cave Junction, Oregon - where time has stopped. Is the missing sign for CompUSA? #ColorADay #RedWed #Photography
Everywhere I look along the Oregon Coast looks like a postcard #RockinTuesday #Photography #TidesOutTuesday #ColorADay + #BlueTue
Proof of alien life on Earth! #MacroMonday #Bloomscrolling #Photography Seriously, I've always thought the Passionflower was the most insane thing.
Are those roots #growing or are they reaching out? I don't think I'll walk through this forest at night, just in case I would find out. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #ColorADay #GreenSat
Nature builds its own traffic cones. The #growing grass blocks this abandoned section of the Pennsylvania Turnpike. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #ColorADay #GreenSat
Those baby redwoods you see #growing out of that little cliff? Well that ain't a cliff, that's their "mother." A giant redwood has fallen and becomes a great source of nutrition and water for the next generation. California #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #ColorADay #GreenSat
#WaterfallWednesday #Photography A small segment of a much larger waterfall along the North Fork Nooksack River in Washington.
Mount Shasta in California in early July, 2026. Last time I visited Mt. Shasta was in the early nineties in early Fall, before any winter snow had fallen. The top then was 100% snow and glacier covered, and that was at the end of summer. This is at the very beginning. #MountainMonday #Photography
