Just gorgeous! You are a fine photographer. I live in Oregon and grew up in Washington, so it is easy to take this beautiful place for granted. Thanks for reminding me how lucky I am!

It's easy to take good photos there. I have a crappy HP camera but once in a while, through no skill of my own, I get a decent shot. :) You should see my husband's pics - he has a Nikon! He takes high-res photos, though, too big to upload here.

Those are just gorgeous! We were also in the Pacific NW recently. My June archives are full of pictures from Seattle, Victoria and Vancouver. It's such a special corner of the world.

We didn't make it to the Hoh this time, but I was there about 8 years ago and really loved it.

Hi Robin!

I could have posted dozens of pictures of the Hoh rainforest - I really felt like I was walking through Fangorn Forest and Treebeard was going to appear at any moment. :) It's a very magical place.

Thanks! Like I said, I'm no great photographer. I point and shoot, but I do try to look for unique angles. Once in a while I get a good one. :)
