“…this #conservative campaign is not limited to #Portland—it’s a national trend that’s become particularly prevalent on the #WestCoast, as conservatives have infiltrated and are attempting to overthrow liberal strongholds in #Seattle and San Francisco as well.”
Back to my favourite place in the world! #Hiking the Copland track to Welcome Flat Hut and enjoy the hot pools up there 😎
The hike itself is not incredible, some very nice views on the river, wonderful forest and impressive suspended bridges (pics to follow), but the 16km feel long sometimes. The reward, however, is absolutely amazing: comfortable hut in the middle of the mountains and forest, no touristic planes and helicopters to ruin the vibe (quite rare in NZ), natural hot pools and and stargazing just next to the hut. This is paradise. #CoplandTrack#WelcomeFlatHut#hotPool#hike#mountains#mountain#WestCoast#Aotearoa#NewZealand#NZ
Hokitika Gorge and its blue water just surrealistic! Even more impressive under a white/grey cloudy sky.
Would be nice spot to sit and chill if it wasn't for the sandflies. Got approx. 15 seconds for being still and enjoy the view before getting eaten alive. #HokitikaGorge#BlueWater#Hokitika#Westland#WestCoast#Aoteatoa#NZ
Rock at Bean Hollow (2017)
(specifically, Pebble Beach at Bean Hollow State Beach)
Pescadero, California
Taken with a Bronica S2 on Fuji Acros film near lovely Pescadero. If you visit San Francisco, I recommend taking a little road trip along the coastal highway (Highway One) south to Pescadero, or a little further to Santa Cruz. A lot of the area is sparsely populated and is quite charming, with several beaches to explore.
I submitted this print for consideration for a gallery exhibit in Portland, Oregon, to be held in that city's Blue Moon Camera and Machine, a great camera store in the city's northwest quadrant. Maybe some of you know it.
They accepted it for the exhibit, and that was the impetus for my road trip between San Francisco and Portland that September. All of the images I've posted here of Oregon and far northern California are from that trip.
I believe that exhibit was arranged by the Film Shooters Collective, which I was a part of back then.
