Nature

Reflecting on adventures

Reflecting on adventures to

national parks to see iconic landmarks

Reflection Lake, Lassen Volcanic National Park, California

Or to hidden gems in more isolated places

Withers Lake, Oregon

Remembering trips in search of feathered friends and

Finding tiny floating treasures

American Coot & cooties, Summer Lake, Oregon

Or elegant creatures striding on stilt-like legs

Sandhill Crane, Summer Lake, Oregon

Reflecting on adventures to

familiar places seen in a new light with a coating of snow

Flag Bridge, Bend, Oregon

Or framed by the fiery leaves of fall

Pioneer Park, Bend, Oregon
