With creative ideas and the world’s coolest flash light, I take on the palouse.
Over a thousand metal wheels surround Dahmen Barn in Union town, Washington. There are endless ways to photograph it, but the shadows in front of this section caught my eye, and I thought the fence would look best in the harsh midday light as an infrared shot.
EARLIER THIS YEAR I co-led a photo tour in the Palouse region of Washington state. I’d never been there before, but reputation alone indicated an awesome photographic destination offering vistas of rolling hills and farmland, plus all the textures, colors, and plays of light and shadow you could wish for.
Basic research (Google Earth, Google Photos) gave me an idea of what I’d be seeing and experiencing, and from that I knew what gear to bring.
