Sting in Reno

Took the short drive up to Reno for the weekend to catch Sting on his Back to Bass tour, and he was just awesome!

Included at the celebration at the state park was a draft horse plowing competition and a scavanger hunt.   Plowing Contest   Plowing Contest ]]> http://www.neotextus.org/2007/05/07/founders-day-at-champoeg/feed/ 0 Happy Independence Day http://www.neotextus.org/2006/07/04/happy-independence-day/ http://www.neotextus.org/2006/07/04/happy-independence-day/#comments Wed, 05 Jul 2006 04:25:00 +0000 paul http://www.neotextus.org/1969/12/31/happy-independence-day/ Here’s to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness!

PCC Panthers played the CCC Cougars on February 15th in two intense battles that saw the men’s Cougars beat PCC 69-66 and the ladies beat PCC 66-61.

I shot the game, played in the new Killingsworth Road gym, as part of a PCC News Photography course. The lightning speed of the game and lighting conditions made for possibly the most challenging conditions I have ever attempted.

Both teams played superbly – well worth an evening out!

It’s almost unthinkable, but the forecast on weather.com for Hillsboro shows that tomorrow’s rain will be the last for 10 whole days – yippee! So far this year, the only outdoor photographs I’ve caught here have been of the ducks, I guess Puddletown is really living up to it’s name this year :-) Wet Feet ]]> http://www.neotextus.org/2006/02/03/the-end-is-in-sight/feed/ 0 Cannon Beach http://www.neotextus.org/2006/01/08/cannon-beach/ http://www.neotextus.org/2006/01/08/cannon-beach/#comments Sun, 08 Jan 2006 08:17:00 +0000 paul http://www.neotextus.org/1969/12/31/cannon-beach/

The rain keeps coming with almost an inch more today in Hillsboro, but in the breaks we did at least get some sunshine. Donna and I took the opportunity to get out to Cannon Beach to walk Becky and snap some great photographs. The sandy beach is dominated by Haystack Rock, probably one of the most photographed natural sites in Oregon – so who am I to break with tradition :-)

Driving South on our way to Santa Cruz a couple of days ago, we rounded a corner to see these magnificent Roosevelt Elk by the side of the road.

The weather was typical for this time of year in the Pacific Northwest – cold with a little rain, but that just seemed to bring out the character of the gorge.
