fisheye portland

I got to spend a short time wandering Portland the other day before heading home, but got a few interesting shots... The fisheye lens is always good for that...

Fall in the Cascade Range...

I've been working all over central and northern Oregon lately and driving all around the Cascades. I've been seeing a myriad opportunities for photography, but lacked the time to go a-wandering in the woods. One spot in particular along Hwy 26 looked almost like it was on fire with the turning leaves in the undergrowth... Yesterday, I had a chance to stop and test the weather sealing on my camera...

sunflowers in fisheye

being more a photographer (not to mention my real job) than a botanist, I've tentatively identified these as sunflowers ('cause they look like sunflowers to me). If you can confirm or deny this, gimme a shout.

an enormous bonzai tree...

A few more are here.

big birds in the foothills

got some cool bird pics today...

a precarious perch...

wildlandphotos.com

Yes, I've once more upgraded and changed my photo gallery site. This blogspot address will continue to be what it has been lately, with quick photo posts now and then, and some info on equipment etc. The fstop.110mb.com site will continue to exist for now, but it's also depricated, as I finally went about getting a domain name all my own... wildlandphotos.com. For a few days it was pointed at my 110mb account, but I was struggling to put together a sales system which was still gonna be kludgy junk, and I said, "there's got to be a better way"...

Enter smugmug... They are a photo hosting site which offers quality print ordering built into their gallery pages... sweet, and I can point my domain at it and customize to my hearts content.

Over the next weeks and months you'll see some changes to the look and organization of my galleries on the wildlandphotos.com site, but it'll be my site for the forseeable future. BTW, if you have any feedback re. the new site, you're welcome to send it to me at josh (@) wildlandphotos.com. I'd love to hear you criticism of the new site.

Cracked...

Stopped by a dry lakebed a few days ago and snapped these...
