Spring, 2023
Spring has, in fact, sprung.
If it wasn’t obvious by the tulip festival, the growing garden, or the countless other photos… Spring is here in Oregon. No two ways about it.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy a few quick views of the Wilsonville greenery… and even some quick snaps of our resident Heron!
March and April, 2023
Man… I swear, if these trees were in Massachusetts, there’d be a whole event around them flowering.
I almost take it for granted, this team of year, just how beautiful the flowering trees of Oregon are. I have to make a point to step back and appreciate the blooms, enjoying the color and symmetry and… well, just everything about them.
I always remember back to the line from “The Last Samurai”: “The perfect blossom is a rare thing. You could spend your life looking for one, and it would not be a wasted life.”
I haven’t dedicated my life to finding the perfect blossom… but I’ll keep it as a hobby, and continue my search.
And, since this is Portland after all, I won’t complain if I find some delicious tacos, crazy spray art, or near little yard ornamentation in the process.

One of the things I enjoy about Oregon is how interesting the weather can be. Gorgeous clouds, rain, summer heat, everything. It’s always fairly mild, and (in my opinion) almost always leads to really beautiful views and images!
Another awesome part of Oregon? Roses!
Combine the plethora of roses with the interesting weather and lighting… and well…
See for yourself!
