I visited Oregon to explore the coast and do some landscape photography in a new environment. These pictures from Cape Kiwanda, Ecola State Park, Hug Point State Park, and Oswald West State Park are just a sample of what I photographed during 750 miles of driving and 25 miles of hiking during a three day trip. I have a larger selection of pictures from this trip in my Oregon gallery.

Pictures from the July 4, 2016 fireworks display in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
