This is but one example

How I got out of the Palouse without taking a million pictures is a bit of a mystery. Every place I looked, every road we went down, every hill we topped provided me with a new photographic vista. I’ve never been anywhere that was this spectacular. I can’t wait to go back.

Waiting for Next Year

Farm equipment, and something that used to be farm equipment, in a field that’s partially harvested.

As the harvest moon rose

The very bright moon was lighting up the hillside as the sky tried to darken.

(There were two people standing there with us as the moon slid up into view. No one spoke. When the moon had cleared the hill, they turned and walked away. It was simple and profound.)

Gold Dust

Can you even believe that I took this picture? It’s about as far from my usual black and white work as you can get isn’t it?

It was as though a pot of gold had spilled across the sky and collected into the low spots.
