Inspiration: Cascades in the Summer

It's time to post some of the photos I've taken over the past few months.  Most were taken as possible sources of inspiration for design, while others were meant to capture a summer memory.  Here they are:

near Camp Sherman

Ponderosa Pine (can't you feel the warm sun on your back?)

Closer view of Ponderosa pine (press your nose against the sun-warmed bark; it smells like vanilla)

Old fencing nailed to Ponderosa pine

Pine drops

Mt. Jefferson, glimpsed through the trees
