I'm tired. Getting on the 3rd plane for this day-long trip from Nashville to Klamath Falls, Oregon.
Leaving for Klamath Falls, Oregon, March 7th.
It had been years since I had seen snow covered mountains. I was saying "wow!" out loud. ..and turned around "wow!". Mountains everywhere!
The view in the other direction. Still on the tarmac.
The drive into town. Andy rented a van and drove us.
The restaurant at the Running Y Lodge. This was taken at 7 am, two mornings later. We worked from 8:30 to past 6 pm both days there, so I didn't get a chance to take other daytime pictures. But you can see the beautiful lodge at http://www.runningy.com
The Edgenet team and the Jeld-Wen team at The Creamery Restaurant, the last evening. I have several pictures still in my camera phone. Will post as soon as I figure out how to download them.
The drive back to the airport, at 5 am, Friday. Thanks, Andy, for driving us safely on snow and ice.
6:10 and we're on board the twin-prop plane. This is the de-icer man turning the propeller in between blasts of de-icer stuff.
6:30 and we're off to Portland, Oregon. I have some movies of the take-off and landing. Will post sometime.
The rest of these pictures were taking from the 2nd airplane - Portland to Minneapolis.
This is the first time I take "aerial photos". They are definately fun to work with in post-processing. No skin tones to worry about. :-)
Can anyone tell me what mountain this is? (I don't know.) It was taken 1 hour out of Portland, on way to Minneapolis. Is this Montana?
I was seated in the very back row of the plane - the only seat left by a window that wasn't over a wing. Thanks, Eldon!
Next time I fly, I'm taking my 8 megapixel digital SLR, instead of my son's $100 camera. (Canon PowerShot A400, 3MP - still a good camera. ...and a really good camera if you know Photoshop :)
Sun reflecting off lakes.
Notice the crater like top on the right mountain. Tell me what mountain that is if you know. By now, we are 1.5 - 2 hours into the flight. Must be Montana.
Most of my pictures had this blue sky in it. The green at the bottom right and magenta at the bottom left are from the plane window.
I have dozens more photos of mountains. Will post later. That's all folks!
