“Horsethief Butte, Washington, February 2023.” ©2023 Gary L. Quay This is another image I'm trying to get right. I still need to get out in the right weather to get out an 8x10 camera to really do it proud, but this one will have to do for now.

To me there is nothing more satisfying than reaching a destination that you’ve been dying to photograph and then photographing it! 💃🏻 I have never seen this side of the Columbia River, twisting through the gorge and fading into the distance, reminiscent of a 16th century landscape painting. As we set up our shots, we cursed the clouds for their bad timing and then gasped with delight when the sun broke through… each and every time it happened. Only photographers can understand this emotional rollercoaster caused by the sun! 😆 I'll be sharing more from this Oregon trip through my stories (IG and FB), so I hope you'll follow along! Back home this weekend.

We went to Multnomah Falls today 😉... it was crazy cold. This is a few shots put together... all of the ice was cool! Not allot of colors this time of year ... lots of photographers there... I couldn't use my tripod because I realized I left the connector on my lens that's in the shop 😑 I used my regular lens because my wide angle is broke too but I can't afford to get it fixed and I can live without it for now 😶 ... sorry the pic is small I had to do it like this to fit the whole thing... it was an adventure... I only slipped and fell one time ... the camera is ok 😂😆😄😉 . . . . . #multnomahfalls #columbiarivergorge #hoodgorge #mthood #mthoodterritory #pdx #oregonexplored #oregon #oregonians #oregonian #oregonlove #oregongrown #oregonnative #oregonliving #oregonadventures #oregonphotographer #exploregon #exploreoregon #realoregon #pnwlife #oregonlife #oregonwild #naturehub #adventurevisuals #ourpnwstory #getoutside #nature_hub #nature_of_our_world #natureshooters #thenwadventure (at Portland, Oregon)

Taking a look at the beauty of Heavens Peak at Glacier National Park in Montana on this #traveltuesday @spektrummagazine 📷 from @jesse.brackenbury Wildflower Wednesday - Heavens Peak in Glacier National Park is still one of my favorite places. The amount of wildflowers you can find here are mind boggling and give so many different compositions! Also, if you go here, please be sure to have bear spray and bear whistles to alert others if you see a bear. It can be quite surreal seeing a Grizzly walk 10 feet in front you when you’re not quite prepared! Do research before you go and enjoy the beauty you see. This was a beautiful blend of scenery. These lupine aren’t as predominant here but there are some around. Enjoy searching around to see what you can find! . @pnwonderland #beauty #bestoftravel #planet_earth_shots #travel #travelblogger @depths.of.earth #thegreat_pnw #travel #earthfocus @earthfocus @pnw.wilderness #pnwmoods #pnwparadise @cascadiaexplored @indurotripods #portlandoregon @wilderness_culture @visitmontana @glaciernps #montana @pnwisbeautiful @planet_earth_shots @discovery.hd #pnwonderland @pnwisbeautiful #traveller @destination.pnw #longexposure #earthpix #nikonphotography #glaciernationalpark #earth_shotz #nationalpark @pnwescapes @pnw.shooters @gorgegreenery @hoodgorge @eaglecreek @nationalparkgeek @natgeoyourshot #natgeoyourshot @glacier_national_park #spektrum #spektrummag #spektrummagazine #earthfocus #america (at Glacier National Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDeXmhLJToh/?igshid=1d1mwtpn159v0

“Field and Dirt Road, Dalleport, WA, November 2022” ©2022 Gary L. Quay I thought that this looked like an interesting composition, and the morning lighting was likewise fairly good, so I stopped for pictures. Intimate details sometimes look good in front of grand vistas.

Snow cat tracks are great aids up, and down, the mountain. May the climber who fell yesterday rest in peace. It's a relief to read that everyone else was rescued and was off the mountain by days end. There's another person in this picture, yet it's nearly impossible to spot him without a magnifying glass. Taken 3 days prior to yesterday's incident. ° ° ° #MtHood #MtHoodNationalForest #Oregon #ExploreOregon #LiveOregon #PNW #PacificNorthwest #PNWdiscovered #UpperLeft #nature #mountains #photography #photooftheday #naturephotography #Scenic #landscape #POTD #Cascades #PhonePhotography #Unedited #NoFilter #GalaxyNote8 @mthoodterritory @oregonexplored @oregon.nw @traveloregon @bestoforegon @hoodriveroregon @hoodgorge (at Mount Hood)

Who should I meet tonight at the Mt. Hood Tiny House Village but some lovely ladies from #traveloregon . Fortunately they were more skilled at building a lasting fire than I was, so I was able to get my shot, with the added bonus of having willing models enjoying s’mores! Exactly what I had in mind for my final shot of the day. 🔥🙌 Now off to bed for a Mt Hood sunrise 🤞 and then a beeline for the south coast of Oregon. . . . #mthoodtinyhouse #hoodgorge #omht #traveloregon #Oregonexplored #traveloregon #BestOfOregon #BestOfOregonCoast #oregonnw #youroregon (at Mt Hood Village RV Resort)

We glide down uneven, dirt roads to find ourselves lost in endless strands of golden wheat until the sun tells us it's time to push on.
