A portion, along the Willamette River. ‘Love locks’ on the fenceline. Fresh air and exercise.

St. Johns Bridge (1929) linking N. Portland to the NW side of Portland. The Willamette R. flowing toward the Columbia River a short distance away near Linnton, Oregon.

Portland Bridges…
the Marquam Bridge (1966) stretches I-5 (North/South Bd.) across the Willamette River at the south end of Portland, Oregon. Note the old submarine moored at the Oregon Museum of Science & Industry (OMSI). I took this photo from the Tilikum Crossing Bridge (2015). Twelve bridges span the Willamette River in the Portland Metro area.

Along Portland’s waterfront on the west side of the Willamette River….sunshine would have been nice, but not too cold.

Not the usual…
I don’t usually take shots of busy landscapes. The clutter of man is usually avoided. Here I saw the St. John’s Bridge (Portland, Oregon) spanning the Willamette River. Perhaps that would be a shot without the intrusion of the pilings, structures and rope/buoy…but I took in anyway… just because. Photo taken from the abandoned Linnton Plywood Factory.

Consuming darkness….
Dark storm front moves by
lightness, darkness, shadows fight
the eyes, the mind sort
A very blustery day in Oregon, on the Willmette River near Salem. The wind was blowing along at 30 mph with stronger gusts. The storm front was moving directly out of the South. Many layers of clouds moved at varying speeds and the shadows/darkness, in the early morning, was surreal as darkness fell with blue sky visible nearby…very volatile weather front.
