For #Stunday, here's my favorite picture of Mt. Hood and Steamboat Landing in #Washougal at the #ColumbiaRiver in the #PNW. #Photography
📷: Nikon Z8 w/AF-S NIKKOR 58mm f/1.4G & FTZ
A foot pier on the Columbia River extends from the right foreground to the middle distance, stabilized by orange columns with white cones on top. The pier is composed of aluminum slats and leads to a stairway up to a platform with the sculpture of a steamboat smokestack with ersatz red flames and smoke coming from it. To the left of the riverbank, which is shored up by boulders, bare Cottonwoods reach to the sky. In the distance, Mt. Hood can be seen with its winter coat under a blue sky with wispy clouds, and the sky is reflected in the not quite still waters of the river.

So nice to see snow back on the mountain! After a welcomed few days of rain down here and snow up there, Mt Hood received enough of a dusting. Caught this image last night as the Sternwheeler was coming towards me and the tug boat was head up the gorge.

Spanning The Mighty Columbia

oregondiscovery.com/astoria-megl...

#Astoria_Megler_Bridge #PNW #NorthCoast #ColumbiaRiver #DistressedFX_App #iPhoneography
The image depicts a large steel bridge spanning across a body of water. The bridge has a truss design and is elevated on tall supports. It stretches diagonally from the left side of the image to the right, with the central support visible in the middle. Below the bridge, numerous wooden pilings protrude from the water, creating a pattern across the surface. On the right side, part of a tree is visible, with branches extending into the frame. The background shows a distant shoreline and hills under a cloudy sky.

I wanted Eva’s warm, seamless skin tones to exist against the blues and greens of the river—human warmth inside a cool, ancient landscape.

Sharing Doc’s beautiful reel of the mighty #ColumbiaRiver in the #PNW. I think many of us on the west coast take the beautiful views of water, trees and mountains for granted. I lived in Utah for a year and when I drove back to Oregon the scenery that I grew up with astounded me. 🌲🏔️🌊

Will #Idaho become home to 1/3 of US nuclear waste?
It would sit on an aquifer that feeds the #SnakeRiver & #ColumbiaRiver.
Lovely.

With its stellar qualifications, INL does not have to be a meek supplicant, begging for transitory scraps from the federal table, writes Jim Jones.

Astoria Quarantine Anchorage where ships wait for inspection, berthing space upriver, a river plot to proceed upstream or a bar pilot to cross the bar downstream and into the Pacific.
#ColumbiaRiver #Shipping #Astoria #Quaratine #Anchorage #BarPilot #RiverPilot
The image shows a large body of water with several cargo ships spread across the horizon. The ships vary in size, with the largest one positioned on the left side of the image, closer to the foreground. The other ships are smaller and appear further away, extending towards the right side of the image. In the background, there are distant landmasses with gentle hills visible under a clear sky. The ships are aligned in a row, suggesting they are anchored or waiting in line.
