Mt. Hood Winter
Looking across the Cascades to the south side of the mountain. Beautiful winter day after a lot of snow. Looking carefully you can see Timberline lifts and Silcox hut. Great day to snowboard.

Mt. Hood, winter at Timberline
Skier's and climber's view, next to Timberline lodge, in late afternoon light on Christmas day. Silcox hut and lifts to the left. Great view of the popular climbing route.

Mt. Hood Lenticular Clouds
Photographed from Portland on a day of changing skies and clouds. A long time ago on old 35mm equipment.
There is one original print left on darkroom sale, which is daker. Originals here sold out.
Standard prints are imperfect. Cool art for $20. Two left. Last of their kind.
Custom prints definitely higher end, nicer, made custom for you. Standard prints need to go, and custom is a lot of work, so big price difference.

Multnomah Falls
Full power and nobody there. The vision for this image was it must be top to bottom totally cranking with no people. Log and side waterfall a nice bonus. One of the best Multnomah Falls photographs ever. Photographed on a very rainy day.

The Gorge
Colombia River. Oregon. Washington. Vista House. Beacon Rock in the far distance.

Morning light, south to Haystack Rock
Looking south on a clear morning as the first sunbeams hit the white waves, contrasting with the black rocks and dark forests of the coast.
|
 |
Haystack Overlook
The endless sand of late summer stretching to the headlands. The white waves, wind sculpted trees, hazy skies, and rocks, so Oregon Coast. Haystack Rock framed in the trees as I stood on a tree stump in the such mellow days before the digital cell age.

Coastal Tree Reflection
Double exposure of a tree on a cliff. Cape Falcon on the Oregon Coast. The seamless mirror image and even exposure, definitely tough to get right. A few lucky people got the few originals years ago. Quite an interesting photograph. One of my all time favorites. Just being creative in the moment, on the camera outside, and inside in the darkroom.

View From Black Butte
After the fire. After wandering in the fog and skies for hours, photographing dead trees, this dramatic silhouette appeared as I started the walk down Black Butte. Dead wood shapes black against Cascade skies radiating from Mt. Jefferson. Wander in nature's silence, become aware.

Dead Trees
After a fire on top of Black Butte, Oregon. Walking in fog on a mountain top among the eerie landscape of burnt remnants and dead trees. Same day as View from Black Butte. I did a whole series of dead trees from this day, and a firefighter in Utah got a great piece I made from them a decade ago. Just sell this image for now, but there is a lot more.

Spirit Pine
Like a person, a spirit, speaking to me. Something was there. I circled back a few times on this hike to look and photograph. I passed it by, but a feeling made me return. The photo has been remarkably popular over the years as people tune into it as well. Central Oregon Ponderosa pine in spring lighting of broken clouds and haze. Take a break, listen to nature. " Silence, that golden stuff " (Edward Abbey).

Clackamas Trees
Hiking above the Clackamas River, Oregon. Looking across the canyon through a screen of young trees. Interesting, artistic composition.
|
 |
Portland Trails
The trails and trees around the Portland area, with tall straight Douglass Firs, ferns, and fallen logs.

Mt. Rainier Winter
So many years and so many powder days and I finally got this shot. The clouds cleared for only 5 minutes, I snapped a few on my 25 year old Pentax, and it clouded over. Rainier in prime winter snowpack and sun. East face. We bombed fresh tracks from right here.

Backcountry Skiing
The backcountry of Wyoming. Perfect day. Ski now, work later. Years past in a funky mellow distant age before the cell phone helmet internet real estate era. I remember hiking this on sunny powder days with just a few people around.
Once I hitchhiked across Alaska without a cell phone, or a helmet. Once Ernest Shackleton and crew spent two winters in Antartica without a cell phone, or health insurance. "I find these lessons of safety, security, and comfort to be, in their extremes, only euphemisms for death" (Tom Brown Jr.).
The few originals sold out years ago to a lucky few, and of course I have one for myself.

Three Sisters, Oregon High Desert
The Oregon high desert stretches west to the Cascade range, which soaks up the ocean rains. Broken Top to the left and the Three Sisters shinning in peak spring snowpack. Most of Oregon is a desert, but everyone lives where it rains.

Beach Days 1
Beach days on the Oregon Coast. Late summer, sand, people, pelicans, rocks, sun, mist. Hanging out. Life is good. Cannon Beach looking south.

California Surf
A nice south swell rolls into La Jolla, and everyone is going out. Lucky me, I showed up right on time.
|

Surfers in the water.
Floating below me, through the trees, as I hike the cliffs.

 |
Ecola
The lowest tide in 30 years, June 2009. Amazing day to walk the beaches.
|
 |
Ancient Stumps and Proposal Rock
Great day to shoot the stumps of dark silhouettes, skies and water. Haystack rock is seen in the far distance.
|
 |
Storm Sunset
The sun sets on the windy foam storm. Sun, wind, sea. Moody black and white.
|
 |
Storm Sunset at Proposal Rock
The camera turns as the sun sets for a last shot. The gusty, intense wind gives this photo its character. The end of the roll and off exposure give the extra faded white.
|
 |
Proposal Rock Seaweed and Foam
Surging tides of the foam storm at Proposal Rock. Spectacular day!
|
 |
Triple Falls
Gorge hiking. I like shooting black and white in winter. Two originals only.
|
 |
Punchbowl Falls
The Gorge. The sign says don't jump. But people do.
|
 |
The Banana Car
True local Hawaii. The old cars and brush. I lived here and harvested bananas. I walked by this little truck everyday thinking about this shot. One day the light was right. Shot in color to. 1985 Dodge Ram 50 pickup. Later that year, it was driven away holding a jar of gas siphoned to the engine.

Art Backs
All my art has writing on the back. Short, long, poetry, sketches, quotes. It changes over time. Putting out some messages, history, stories, websites, or fun. Sometimes I get rolling in the flow, and photos can come with original poetry. This has been a fun thing over the years and the great response from people keeps it evolving. Sometimes my booth feels like a library with all the reading going on. I take pride in making original, personal, signed art. Anything personally signed means more, and is worth more, as the years go by. It's important to me as an artist to put out a message, not just sell pretty pictures.
Photographs are not attached to boards. Frame both sides if you like.
