Horsetail Falls Trail off the Historic Columbia River Highway is a great place to start your Gorge Waterfall Tour. Pass through a chamber behind Ponytail Falls, then continue on Oneonta Gorge Trail to see Oneonta Gorge, Oneonta Falls and Triple Falls.
Today, the bridge is part of a path through the research farm between 35th and 53rd Streets on the west side of the OSU campus, spanning Oak Creek. Although the property is owned by the university, maintenance is carried out by the Benton County Parks Department.
The section of Highway 20 in central Oregon runs between Bend and Burns and contains a number of interesting abandoned buildings. Here one of them is featured. The above building was shot in regular color, the same building below was changed to Sepia tone, giving the photo an older, turn of the 20th century look.
The same building from a different viewpoint, shot initially in color.
Now the same building in sepia tone.
I love the look of abandoned buildings, especially in the countryside that evokes better times in the past but currently has a almost haunted look about it.
In it I will publish photographs and notes covering the Northwest states of Oregon and Washington in the U.S. and British Columbia in Canada. The Southwest portion of my blog will cover the states of New Mexico, Arizona, Utah and to a lesser extent, California and southern Colorado.
The photographs, captions and dialog will be on wildlife and outdoor photographs. Architectural archaeology such as ancient ruins, abandoned building, covered bridges and Victorian buildings will also be featured. Archaeology and ancient rock art from the region are included as well.
