The Palouse, Washington

Issue #054 - The Palouse, Washington

Along roads through the Palouse are some great old barns and many good places to stop and photograph patterns of wheat fields. Look in every direction and you’ll see scenes as ephemeral as the light, the time of day, and the movement of clouds across the sky. The landscape changes from rocky, pine-covered forest to rolling hills covered with wheat fields. Watch for old windmills along the road. Stop and climb up any hill along Martin Road. You’ll find a view of sweeping wheat fields receding into the distance.
