One of the last sunflowers in our yard blooming at the end of the of September. The Bees are mostly gone, the birds have moved in to pick at the dried seeds. Later in October the Squirrels will come in, climb up and knock the stalks over taking the remaining seeds. #UrbanLandscape #AnamorphicLens

Pioneer hilltop cemetery in the Willamette valley. Several headstones record early European settlers who traveled here by the Oregon Trail. Very few in the 19th century lived past 50. Many died young, women in their 20's - then children before the age of 10. #MonochromeAnamorphicPhotography

The Arch de Trumph has absolutely nothing to do with the USA's standing in the world today. It's all about a man who bankrupted 3 Casios. Then with the help of Faux news convinced a third of the voting population to vote for him. After all he was a successful business man on his reality TV show.

Low tide at Neskowin beach. Meanwhile, forests burn, and money is pissed away in Washington on frivolous adornments, oversized ballrooms, and ill advised loosing wars. But the stock market is still up so why worry about the negative effects of climate change. #MarineLandscape #B&WFilmPhotography

Wildfire above Lyle WA in the Columbia gorge. Yesterday the fire covered a few hundred acres. Today the fire's over 1,500 acres. This time of year the afternoon winds can reach 20 to 30 MPH and more. There has not been enough resources allocated to fight these. #AnamorphicPhotography #WestCoastKin

Called the Long Narrows by Meriwether Lewis. A 11 mile long narrow chasm where the river was turned on its side. One of the largest freshwater fisheries in North America until the Dalles dam was built in 1957. #MonochromePhotography #IndustrializedLandscape #WestCoastKin

Called the long Narrows by Lewis & Clark, A ten mile stretch of rapids to be portaged. A native fishery after the Missoula floods receded and the salmon returned. In 1957 The Dalles Dam flooded this section of Nchʼi-Wàna (Columbia). Ending perhaps the largest fresh water fishery on the continent.

So much winning - for decades the USA has touted the most powerful military on the planet. Currently all I have to show this is: two weeks ago $70 to fill my cars tank this week $80. Our conman in chief has sold MAGA followers his bullshit is legal tender.

Here's a link to a short film I shot with 16mm B&W film some 30 years ago. I recently made a film scanner out of parts to transfer the film to the Digital world. The footage is from a Tribal dance contest at Warm Springs. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIX1...

While it's true the USA's tactical military abilities are the best in the world. Strategically we have accomplished very little especially in the Middle East while spending Trillions. Meanwhile, our realty TV star keeps playing his pipes leading us to a fiscal cliff. bankruptcy is his mastery.
