Oft-times, me and Jesse enjoy just hopping in the car and going for drives. Not anywhere in particular, but just for the sake of getting out and seeing something new. We do our best to get ourselves lost, but through the power of the technologies, haven't succeeded just yet. Friday we drove up 3 mile road outside of The Dalles to see what we could find. One of our first discoveries was this furry fellow standing guard just as we were heading out.
Seems like this Guard-Cow would have been enough, but we continued on up the road with a feeling that we had just met the reigning leader of the entire barnyard kingdom.
We pulled off to the side of the road in various spots and found some great spots to highlight the awesome cumulus clouds that were perfectly abundant. Although these areas don't necessarily have "Gorge" written all over them, I want the video to showcase all of the diverse landscapes that the Gorge has to offer, including the rolling hills and wheat fields.
It's always fun when Jesse's able to come along on these little excursions, and it's also helpful because she's a pro at snapping plenty of behind-the-scenes pictures/video!

We set up time-lapses in two different spots on this trip. It was pretty windy, so I was a little upset with myself for not bringing our larger tripod, but the lapses still turned out pretty good. However, we may be back once the crops are full grown to give them another go. After all, any excuse to drive an awesome spot is a good one. :) Here's a couple of shots pulled from each of the two different locations.
