The first picture, taken from my balcony, overlooking the Columbia River Gorge. This was my fist attempt to use the manual settings on my camera and take it off Auto. NO MORE AUTO:) The other two pictures were taken on the Eagle Creek Hiking Trail on the Columbia Gorge in Oregon just of I-84. The hike takes you up to Punch Bowl Falls but there are many other small falls along the way. Not a well know area outside of Oregon, but well worth a visit if traveling East along I-84
