Oregon Odyssey #1: Lines In The Desert

Kory Lidstrom

Whew! Just got back from a whirlwind Oregon Odyssey. I'll have several images to show from the trip in the coming days.

This are possibly my favorite images from the trip and ironically are from the last 24 hours we were there. The lines you see in the photos are salt lines from lakeshores that have evaporated. If you're interested in learning more about the trip, check my photoblog.

beautiful, love the sky in the first one and how the ground draws your eye to the mountain in the second

I really like the first one, and I love the Alvord it is an amazing place.

Nice shot. I really like both. I prefer the color over the BW but I think the BW could be pushed a little more in post and it would then beat out the color....for me anyways.

YMMV
