Donna Rohr and I spent several hours on Monday (10/23) with our cameras in and around the Ribbon Ridge and east Chehalem Ridge AVA's.  The Vines were an incredible yellow, with green grass and great barns.  Enjoy!  Click here for more

I will be the featured artist at Artisanal Wine Cellars for the November ARTwalk.  I will feature several new photos in a new way (to me) Metal with a satin finish and rounded corners. Printing on metal yields vivid colors and clarity.  I decided to use the Satin finish as the gloss has such high reflection value that it can be distracting.  I will also have a variety of pieces that have been shown before.  Please stop by, check out the new works and visit.  I'm looking forward to sharing my photos with you. 

Tomorrow the City of Newberg will begin the process of removing the Beautiful Villa Oak.  Attempts were made to change the course of the sidewalk and bike lane, but ultimately were unable to prevail.  Donna Rohr, fellow photographer, posted on Facebook trying to get a large group of people to come for a portrait with the Villa Oak.  On Friday, the 29th Donna found out the removal date is October 2nd.  With such short notice she was unable to reach out to as many  people as she had hoped.  Both of us took many shots and then came back to catch the evening light.  The photos posted here are the best of my photos.  Enjoy-if you would like copies, please contact me.
