Fine Art Nature and Landscape Images of the Mountains and Lakes of the Northwest
As you travel along the numerous mountain roads of the Northwest, you’re bound to experience magnificent views, vistas and wildlife. While some mountains can only be found off the beaten path, others are very well known. Lakes dot the landscape. Many of which were created, thousands of years ago, by lava flows or volcanic craters. Enjoy exploring the rain forests of the Coast Range, the volcanic peaks of the Cascades, or the Blues, Wallowa, Steen’s, Siskiyou, and Klamath Mountains. The Northwest mountains have a lot to offer.

crater-lake-sunrise
The way the sky lite up for this photo, had me dreaming of orange sherbet and Creamsicles.
Scott Lake Reflection
I used a 10 stop ND filter to get a 30 second long exposure. The long exposure flattened out the ripples and makes a clearer reflection. It even made the two kayaks across the lake disappear, since they didn't stay in one place.

Edith Creek cascades down the flank of Mt Rainier though huckleberries and boulders.
Waldo Lake Sunrise

Alaska-Range-Sunrise-2
Sunrise in Alaska (golden hour), near the equinox, is close to a two hour event. Here in Oregon Sunrise happens in about half of that amount of time. The windblown snow and fiery sunrise created wonderful lines throughout the image. I enjoyed capturing this image, even if it was only 4 degrees Fahrenheit.

Crater Lake Pano
We used snowshoes to get from the parking lot, at the Crater Lake Lodge, to Discovery Point. It is over a mile, and we used headlamps to navigate our way in the dark. This panoramic photograph is 4 separate images stitched together to make one image. This image can be printed over 60 inches wide.
Denali Pano 2
Happily the clouds unveiled both North and South Denali for this sunrise photo. The weather forecast was correct, which was a good thing, since we left from Fairbanks, Alaska at midnight to get here in time for sunrise.
Winter Sunrise
Winter Sunrise, captured near Crate Lake, Oregon
Mt Jefferson Sunset
We hiked into Jefferson Park in the Mt. Jefferson, Oregon wilderness for an overnight camping trip. I walked around Scout Lake to the north side to capture this image of Mt Jefferson as the sun was setting. A long exposure time smoothed out the ripples in the lake resulting in a wonderful reflection.
Broken Top
This photograph was taken at Sparks lake, Oregon. It was mid-afternoon and people were out in their kayaks enjoying the view of Broken Top Mountain.

Sunset at Stanley Lake, Sawtooth National Recreation Area, Idaho. We were camped about 1 mile away, so I got to hike back to camp in the dark
