From the Sabin Plateau looking down on the Irvington area of NE Portland. Twisting tree at the bottom was an eye-catcher for me.

I thought the blue background worked in an interesting way with the red of the Japanese Maple.

Fall Flora Continues

I still have a bit of an inventory of Fall images to post. I hope they are visually interesting and don’t bore the visitors to the site to sleep or worse…..Due to timing and circumstances ( weather, etc.) I have not been able to pursue some photo ideas and field trips this Fall. Hopefully I will get the opportunity soon.
