Narrows of Oregon

While not 16 miles long like the Narrows of Utah and a heck of a lot wetter/greener, the Oneonta Gorge gives off a similar "you are surrounded" kind of a feeling. This by the way is looking the opposite direction from my previous shot of Oneonta falls.

This is pretty cool, John. Good thinking getting down low here.

A hard place to find just the right spot. This works about as well as anything else I've seen looking this direction. I like it.

Thank you Mark and Marc for the kind words. I wanted to show a bit more about the shape of this place..... I appreciate you both taking time to comment.

John,
I don't think I've ever seen a shot pointing the other direction from here. What a cool perspective.

Same here, John - this is a really novel perspective. I like the addition of reds and browns in the foreground in a setting is normally dominated by green/black/white. Nice!

Hey this is a great perspective and makes your eye stretch into the far away distance through the narrows after it exclaims over the fg river bed. Very cool.

What are we gonna call this perspective now? Hmmm, how about "Trout-Cam"

Cool shot John, those greens are really poppin.

Trout-Cam...Lol

Good idea--the low perspective cuts out the sky and lets you focus on all that gorgeous color and detail. This is my favorite spot in all of Oregon, but I haven't visited it since the log jam broke up. I like it.
