The Columbia River Gorge in Oregon is a treasure trove of waterfalls. As you drive along the historic Columbia River Highway, you'll find many waterfalls. Multnomah Falls is the most beautiful and popular one, with Horsetail Falls holding its own with its beauty. With a 176 foot drop, the fall comes together then fans out to resemble a horse's tail ... so its name is very fitting. One thing they all have in common is that beautiful sound and the freshend air of a waterfall ... so peaceful and relaxing.

This is the most visited waterfall in Oregon. With a parking lot on Interstate 84, it's easy to see the beautiful 620-foot waterfall with a lovely bridge crossing the gap. I made my stop just after sunrise and the visitors were few, so there was plenty of room to set up and take some shots. The environment was very nice, with the sound of the water and a cool breeze and mist from the waterfall. Oh the rewards of getting up early.

This beautiful beach is just off of Hwy 101 in Depoe Bay, Oregon ... but from the highway you can't see its beauty. I passed it by several times until I looked at it on Google maps and decided it might be a good sunset location. It definitely didn't disappoint. Ah, the technology we have today is a big help for us out-of-town photographers.
