From the Sea to the Sky:
A Photographic Journey
Friday, May 21st, at 1:30pm
in the Party Room
Cornell Estates welcomes armature photographer, Terry Steel, as he shares his photographic journey from Santa Cruz Island to the Oregon Coast, Mt. Hood National forest to the very northeast corner of Oregon, the Wallowa Mountains and north to Whistler, BC. His power point presentation will begin at 1:30pm in the Party Room on Friday, May 28th.
His presentation will begin on Santa Cruz Island, one of the five islands that make up the Channel Islands National Park, located just twenty five miles off the Southern California coastline. From there, the audience will journey north along the Oregon Coast making brief stops at a few of the Central and Northern beaches.
Next stop is Mt. Hood National Forest with its many lakes and hiking trails to the very northeast corner of Oregon, to see the Eagle Cap Wilderness in the Wallowa Mountains. This area has been described as the Oregon Alps and has over fifty alpine lakes. The last stop on the journey is Whistler, BC; one of the venues for the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.
Photographer Terry Steele, son in-law to Cornell Estate’s resident Rose Enyeart, spent several years living in Ventura County , which lies along the Southern California coastline, before moving back home to Oregon. In exchange for the beautiful sailing waters off Ventura, he has rediscovered the wonderful back country of the Pacific Northwest.
