CouchSurf Portland

Hello Everyone.

This past weekend I took a change of scenery and decided to CouchSurf in Portland Oregon. We were fortunate to have our lovely hosts Ashley and David to let us stay for the weekend.




I should probably take this time here to explain exactly what this entails. Couch Surfing is a net-based hospitality network, designed to help fellow travelers like myself. Basically, people offer up their couches/air matresses/whatever they have for travelers to sleep on during their trips. and before I knew it, I was wandering the streets of Portland. And that basically explains the weekend.

Here are some of my favorite pictures.. raw and unedited...




A little fascination with yellow cars..













I was lucky to be the "first guy in Oregon" to have played with the brand new, unreleased Sony Alpha-900.

my reaction a few moments after playing with the camera



my favorite of all.

Sammy was this dog's name..







This weekend was pretty much unreal.. I had a huge creative sprout and it really cleared my head. thanks for all involved.
