Subject: Leaving Oregon
For a vacation last week I took a trip to Montana. We drove through the Columbia River Gorge, through the dry sections of Oregon, through eastern Washington and then to idaho and Montana. Many of my photos were taken from a moving car. It's challenging when doing it at highway speeds. You never know what is going to get in the way. A lot of the time I had to take them through the car glass, but it didn't degrade the image much as long as the glass was reasonably clean. It doesn't work well with dirty glass, which sometimes happens when traveling.
I'll start by showing the trip through the Columbia River Gorge where there were many wind mills. I found them fascinating. I hope you do too.
Photo No. 1 - While driving through the Gorge we see Multnomah Falls. That's a popular tourist attraction.
