Zen

Zen Photography

I was inspired to release “Zen” per a conversation I had with a woman who was in my gallery last week.  She collects Fine Art Photography and I was curious to know what type of Nature Photography she connected with. She connects to color and not necessarily the scene. Wow, that took me back to my previous career in the music business. Men for the most part don’t listen to lyrics, we like songs because of the beat or the instrumental part.

Lewis River runs through Oregon and dumps into Lower Lewis Falls. I wasn’t feeling the waterfall so I began my hike up the river to see if I could find something that would inspire me. Well, I definitely found something inspiring and that was the sound of smooth running water, with blues, greens and different colors going on in the river rocks. Love, Love, Love the blues and greens in this shot.  “Zen” is a limited edition print and can be viewed here.

The Gatekeeper

Canon Beach Fine Art Photography

The City of Cannon Beach is located on the Pacific Northwest Coast of Oregon, 80 miles west of Portland and 25 miles south of Astoria. Cannon Beach is surrounded by the rugged natural beauty of forests, ocean beaches, rivers, and the Oregon Coast Mountain range.  The clouds looked like they were formed with a paint brush so it inspired me to treat this shot like a painting.  Waiting patiently for the perfect wave to push the water up the shoreline, I slowed down my camera speed to get the smooth effect.  I love everything about this shot from the proud boulder to the smooth ocean; but the subtle color along the shoreline blows my mind.
