By no means is this a stellar photo from a technical standpoint. While out hiking I had such a cool experience I had to at least share this image. While hiking up on a mountain ridge this juvenile golden eagle flew right below me, then proceeded to fly up and around me for a few minutes before moving on. I snapped a couple pictures by hand as quick as I could.
For me, there is nothing more satisfying than being immersed in a lush green forest. Of all my travels, nothing compares to the temperate rainforests of the Cascade Mountains in Oregon.
This skyline is the place I have called home for nearly 20 years now and yet this is the first time as a photographer I have taken the time to snap a photo of the city. If you have followed my work for any duration, you will know I am not much for having the hand of man in my work. After spending a day with the family walking our dog, I saw this shot and just couldn’t resist coming back later in the week to take a few shots at an optimal time. I am glad I did.
