Palouse Patterns - Evening
Uploaded: June 24, 2005 06:05:59
ISO 200, f/6.3, 1/60 sec, Canon 100-400 IS lens at 135 mm, tripod. Late evening, taken from Steptoe Butte. The topography of the Palouse area of SE WA state is unique, almost no areas in the world are like it.

Is this SE Western Australia John? Very very unusual. Love the late evening shadows which give it depth! #268430

This is SE Washington state in the US. (I forgot that some members are not in the US...!) This area of the state is very unusual, with the rolling hills. It is one of the highest-producing wheat (and some other crops) areas in the world. Steptoe Butte is around 1000 feet higher than the surrounding area and is almost treeless, so you get phenomenal views that almost resemble aerial shots. But you have to get out REAL early or stay late at this time of year. In the morning, you need to be there at 5 am to get the shadows. After about 7 in the morning, this scene would look really flat and washed out. John #1516958
