BACK ON TRACK AGAIN


A trip to St Helens, Oregon for Thanksgiving brought me my first Photo for the December project. As I was driving home along the Willamette River just North of Gobel, Oregon I caught a scene that captured my heart. I almost kept driving but I turned around and back tracked a few miles to find the right spot and photograph what I had seen. It just seemed like such a beautiful and peaceful room in the surrounding country side.

Jeanne, your colors are just marvelous. And, the use of space with the curving lines is just spectacular. It makes Gobel look positively inviting.

Thank you! I am so blessed to be a part of your group.

The colors and lines draw me in. I'm so glad you took the time to find your viewpoint.

Oregon is beautiful, I grew up there. This photo has historical meaning as well--trains. I looked up Goble on Wikipedia to find that it was the Oregon side of the train ferry to Kalama, WA before they built the railroad bridge in Vancouver.

Thank you for your photo!
