The Columbia River Gorge.
First off, please excuse the iPhone pic. Sometimes you’ve got to make due and I’d rather shoot with an iPhone while driving than not shoot at all.
It’s been a three-day run from Austin, Texas to Olympia, Washington. I’m finally here and looking forward to a day tomorrow of exploring before flying out in the wee hours Wednesday morning.
Hit hard winds and eventual rain coming through the Columbia River Gorge this afternoon. I’ve never seen the Columbia in person and was stunned by the vastness of the river. Coming out of the brown, rolling, agricultural high plains of Idaho only to be confronted by the sheer amount of water in the Columbia, I can only imagine the feelings the Oregon Trail pioneers had.
It must have shocked Lewis and Clark to no end in 1805.
I’m wiped out and only on day three of a twelve day marathon. Haven’t had a chance to pull the real camera out yet but it has been fun to play as I go with the iPhone.
We’ll see what the coming days bring.

Stellar image of a place I’ve always had trouble shooting.
The iPhone is changing photography… this is a wonderful example of just why.
