Today’s photo is a view of the little stream (a man-made waterway called the Salem Ditch) which runs next to the Public Library on 1st Ave. As I’ve probably said before, it’s really lovely, and not at all ditch-like.
Here’s another installment from my central Oregon coast road trip. I’ve decided to make it an even week, so there will be another post tomorrow.
These shots of waves was taken a bit south of Depoe Bay, if I remember correctly. Click on the photo at right to make it bigger. I had never taken photos [...]
Today’s photo from my road trip to the central Oregon coast shows some fishing boats in the marina at Yaquina Bay in Newport. We’d come down there to see some sea lions (say that three times fast), but they were all hanging out back behind a building. Darn them. The photo at right is of [...]
And here we are at part four of my mid-Oregon coast road trip (see also: Yaquina Bay Bridge, a Newport beach at sunset, and a pier at Siletz Bay, this time stopping in at Depoe Bay. I keep wanting to spell that as Depot, which is so very wrong. I shall try to refrain.
This is [...]
Today is the third part of my trip to the central Oregon coast (see also: part 1 – Yaquina Bay Bridge, and part 2 – Newport beach at sunset).
This is a small pier behind Mo’s Restaurant in Lincoln City. I’m a bit confused as to geography, but I think this is the edge of Siletz [...]
This is my last water-oriented photo for now (see also the last several days). This is a view of the lovely Salem Ditch, looking from 3rd Ave. to the bridge on 4th Ave. If you look closely (click on the image to see it larger), there is a person standing on the far bridge, looking [...]
I’ve apparently decided to just post a bunch of water-oriented photos in a row (see the last handful of days). It wasn’t intentional, but let’s pretend I planned it all out as a theme. I’m not in a rut, it’s on purpose!
This is another shot of the lovely Salem Ditch, taken next to one of [...]
This is part of a man-made waterway called Salem Ditch, where it runs between Harold’s Jewelers and Cartwright’s Music, along 3rd Ave. The bridge in the background is part of 4th Ave. I may have posted a similar view of this part of the ditch in the past, but heck if I can remember.
If I [...]
In a probably successful effort to drive a theme into the ground, I am presenting the third day in a row of clouds reflected in my favorite power canal off of the south end of town, along Water St. (see also: Ye Olde Barn and Natural Symmetry). This is the last photo of the power [...]
I posted a photo of this nifty red barn back on January 2nd. When I took that photo, the sky was bright blue. I figured it might be interesting to take basically the same shot with a cloudy sky, just for grins and giggles. The clouds make a big difference, I think.
Back to my favorite power canal today. I had to — the reflection of the clouds and blue sky were too pretty to do anything else. This view is looking towards the old power company building (that brownish thing in the middle of the photo) on Water St. I’ll probably post another photo tomorrow of [...]
I took this on Stayton-Scio Rd., facing west into the sun. It ended up over exposed in the light spots and too dark in the darker spots (which I expected), so I jacked up the contrast in Lightroom and converted it to black and white to try to give it a mood. Yay.
It wasn’t the best day for it, since the weather was pretty drab, but I stopped and took some photos of the Santiam River from the bridge a couple of days ago, where it passes under Stayton-Scio Road. This is the view facing east. I wanted to get a shot facing west, but there were [...]
Guest photographer John Brandt took this beautiful photo of Wilderness Park, as seen from across the creek (otherwise known as Salem Ditch) at Pioneer Park. It looks mystical. Thanks, John.

This cool building sits at the edge of the power canal just off of 4th Ave. I don’t know what it is, but it’s on City property, I think. Anyone out there know what this building is or the purpose it serves? It looks like an old barn to me.
By the way, sorry about yesterday’s [...]
