Latourell Falls Hike

A few weeks ago, Wednesday (the 7th), I was able to go hiking AGAIN! We had another beautiful day, and it wasn't too cold. Latourell Falls is supposed to be a loop hike, though with me around, I explore so we didn't know where exactly we were supposed to turn, so we made our own loop! Again, still a little obsessed with close up shots, and again not too many view points of the gorge :( But regardless, it was still beautiful!






































































































































































                                                   







































FINALLY! A view of the Gorge :D





 I have a soft spot for flowers and shallow depths of field. Love getting one part of it totally in focus, forcing you to look where I want you to!

Triple Falls Hike

I went hiking on March 30th, which was a Wednesday. It was absolutely gorgeous out, and was glad I had a friend to go with. Triple Falls is out in the Columbia Gorge, here on the Oregon side, past Multnomah Falls. Though I have hiked it before, I don't remember it being as steep and so much of a work out! PHEW! But, it is totally worth it if you want to see some awesome things God made. Hiking definitely brings His creative side into light for me, I see it a lot better with my camera though. I am thankful I can get pictures (that I love) of what He has made! As you will see, I am a little obsessed with close up pictures. This is partly because this hike didn't have many, if any, viewpoints of the Gorge. The only major thing to photograph was the falls, so you get to see lots of flowers :)





































Okay, I am not sure what that is below! We were driving back to Gresham on the highway, and I saw what looked like a really bright cloud. Looking closer I saw it was like a mini rainbow. My camera didn't catch all the colors I saw (more blue, orange, and reds), but regardless, it's still pretty!
