Central and Eastern Oregon
The wild landscape of Central and Eastern Oregon runs deep with history and diversity.
To the north, the mighty Columbia River meanders her way through 4,000 ft canyons. In 1986 it was signed into law as a National Scenic Area. In the central part of the state, lies the high desert and scenic Three Sisters Wilderness, Ochoco and Deschutes Mountains. To the south are the Steens Mountains. They too, have stunning carved gorges, wild rivers and are home to an abundance of wildlife. It is some of the most rugged and remote land still left in Oregon. My adrenaline continues to be fueled by adventure and exploring new places of historical significance that shaped the landscape. This gallery takes me back into our forgotten past of what we did, or didn't do to build our future.

~ The Second Floor ~
This wall has collapsed exposing some of the interior of this house. I had to shoot it from across a very large pasture, but it's still easy to see the early 1900's hot water tank that were made of riveted steel and galvanized. On the back wall you can see some pantry shelves, however there is no staircase to the second floor.

on December 15, 2021I'm so glad that you've captured this image of the imminent collapse of the second floor onto the first. I love getting photos of old buildings as they have so much character left in them, even after all the years they have stood strong. How very interesting that the hot water tank was made of riveted steel and galvanized. I can only imagine the cost of one like that today. This is an outstanding image and it's perfect in B&W. Excellent work!
