Westward Ho!

9 years, 10 months ago 7

It’s June and I’m headed to two of my favorite locations; the dColumbia River Gorge and the Palouse!.  if that were not enough I’m doing both joining my dear friend and great photographer Jack Graham!  Jack sand I have been friends for many years and when I retired least year from Nikon he invited me to join him on some of his workshops and I jumped at the chance.  Jack runs a first class workshop and is a lot of fun to hang out with!

 

Next week we do the Columbia River Gorge, one of the best spots in America to shoot water!  I can’t wait, the following week we head out to the Palouse region an area I love and hate, don’t get me wrong the shooting and scenery are top notch, but the day are really long!!!  Jack promise I’ll get my beauty rest, and boy do I need it!

 

 

I will try to post each day but it may be tough but I will share the great images we are making!  I just pick dup my second Fuji X-T1 so I will be using a pair of them this trip and the usual suspects as lenses, more tech details to follow with the up coming posts!

 

Blessings,

    I envy you my friend. Those two locations you are off to are on my “to – do” list.

  2. Really enjoy your time in the Palouse. Looking forward to your shots with the X-T1, on your advice I just added it to my Nikon D4 and D800 stable.

    Take Care and Be Safe

    Enjoy one of my favorite places! Unfortunately, She Who Must Be Obeyed and I are going to some weird place called Corbin.

    That is weird!

  5. We’re back home now — about the only memorable thing I remember about Corbin is that gas is about $3.50/gallon vs. close to $4 the further north you go, particularly Louisville. For some reason two-thirds of my shots from Cumberland Falls were lost in corrupted files on the SD card in the X-E2 — second time I’ve lost files like this with this camera. We spent the night at Boone Tavern Hotel in Berea and the next two nights in Louisville before coming home today. Hope my laundry list of locations in the Seattle-Portland area helps and that you have lots of fun! (BTW, I don’t know about their cheeseburgers but the Multnomah Falls Lodge has great views in the dining room!)
