Revisiting the Carousel at Jantzen Beach

April 2, 2012June 20, 2017 by Arno

Back in October I wrote about taking photographs of the carousel at the Jantzen Beach Center. I recently went back to the carousel for a few more photos. This time my goal was to capture the beauty of the carousel in motion. The first step was to find a few places that had enough room for…

Graffiti and Reflections in an Abandoned Building

March 6, 2012June 20, 2017 by Arno

One of my favorite things to photograph is graffiti art. It can have so much texture, color and style to it. I do believe it can be beautiful in the correct setting. When I set out to shoot inside this abandoned building my original thought was that I would try to capture the graffiti with…

Vista House at Crown Point

January 9, 2012June 20, 2017 by Arno

Vista House at Crown Point is about 30 miles from Portland on the Historic Columbia River Highway (U.S. Route 30). On a clear day you have an incredible view of the Columbia River Gorge and some of the Cascade Mountains. I arrived late in the day just as the sun was setting, the lighting and clouds…

72 Jumping Horses and 2 Chariots

October 12, 2011June 20, 2017 by Arno

I was at Jantzen Beach this morning and ended up taking a tiny detour over to snap a few photos of the carousel there. The carousel, which has 72 jumping horses and 2 chariots, was built in 1921 by the C.W. Parker Amusement Company from Leavenworth, Kansas. After being in storage for three years in Long Beach, California it…

Sunset over the Columbia River

July 4, 2011June 20, 2017 by Arno

I was overwhelmed by the vivid colors in the sky and the reflections on the Columbia River as I crossed over the Interstate Bridge heading back to Portland. Unfortunately I couldn’t stop in the middle of I-5 to get the photo I wanted so it would have to wait. The following day I drove to…

The Creepy Gasco Building

June 25, 2011June 20, 2017 by Arno

Like a lot of people that have driven down Highway 30 I’ve wanted to know more about the abandoned gray building off the west bank of the Willamette River. Today I stopped to see if I could get a closer look, to take some photos, and maybe get inside. After 20 minutes of talking with…

The path less traveled

May 3, 2011June 20, 2017 by Arno

The path less traveled is a bit overgrown but it’s very peaceful.

Visiting Red Rock Canyon

April 11, 2011June 20, 2017 by Arno

If you find that you need a break from the insanity of the Las Vegas strip and you have a car, take a short drive to Red Rock Canyon, Nevada. It is located about 20 miles west of the Las Vegas strip and worth a visit. Although I found the first couple of trails to…

Old Burned House

March 30, 2011June 20, 2017 by Arno

I spotted this burned out house in the middle of a field. The bright blue sky and beautiful wispy clouds overhead made for a wonderful backdrop.  I knew if I didn’t capture the moment it would eat away at me for the next 100 miles. Don’t know the story about what happened here or how…
