"The mouth of Columbia River is known as a Nightmare Bar or the Graveyard of the Pacific. According to the Columbia River Maritime Museum in Astoria, since 1792, about 2,000 ships, including more than 200 large vessels, have sunk in this area."

“Rust, Fort Stevens Jail, Oregon.” 
©2021 Gary L. Quay 
We went out to the coast a couple of weeks ago, hoping to see a sky with a lot less smoke in it. Well, not so much. With sweeping landscapes out of the question, I stumbled across a small town outside of Fort Stevens, which is near Astoria, Oregon. The old jail is there, and when we saw this barred door, we knew that it needed to be photographed. Along with a few digital pictures, I used a couple of sheets of 8x10 color slide film. I can’t wait to see how they turn out.
Camera: Nikon D810 Lens: 150-600mm Tamron

Assistant Secretary of State Frederick W. Seward and father, Secretary of State William H. Seward, drive out to Fort Stevens with President July 1864. President Lincoln tours fortifications again and comes under fire. A man is shot at his side. General Wright tells Lincoln to get out of danger. Lincoln does not move. Young officer, Oliver Wendell Homes Jr., shouts: "Get down, you fool."

I’m not sure where this obsession for shipwrecks and abandoned buildings came from but I’m not sorry about it. #history #deepinthought #getourghoston #abandoned #shipwreck #fortstevens #gay #selfie #pnw #oregoncoast (at Shipwreck Beach, Fort Stevens State Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPUJ2DlB8IY/?utm_medium=tumblr

“Rusted Gate, Fort Stevens Jail, Oregon.” . ©2021 Gary L. Quay This is a rusted gate, at the Fort Stevens jail, in Fort Stevens, Oregon. The landscapes were not very interesting that day, so we opted for the doorscapes. This is a film version of pictures I posted a couple of weeks ago. I was testing out the repair on the Deardorff, which seems to have been a success. I haven't gotten it out in bright sunlight yet, but that will come once the smoke clears. Camera: Deardorff 8x10 Lens: 360mm Schneider Film: Ilford Ortho+ developed in 510-Pyro #pnwexplored #fortstevens #oregonexplored #pacificnorthwest #garyquay #cascadiaexplored #oregon #onlyinoregon #viewfromhere #YourShotPhotographer #pnwcrew #film #filmphotography #myoregon #oregoncoast #deardorff #ilford #orthoplus #viewcamera #largeformat (at Fort Stevens, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTgW-ZLn9nk/?utm_medium=tumblr

《《《 spiraling down and down or is it up 》》》 Have you ever read the #southernreachtrilogy, by #jeffvandermeer? There was the film #annihilation too, based off of the first book. They are hands down the most bizarre books I have ever read and I loved them so so hard. They're deep, thought-provoking, confusing af, beautifully weird. . Anyway. I asked because you'll only know what I'm talking about if you've read them. . These spiraling stairs at #FortStevens gives me vibes of Area X. The tower/tunnel, the lighthouse, that Ghost Bird follows down, finds what's left of Saul. I can imagine vines on the wall writing it out, "Where lies the strangling fruit," and such. Right? . Those books are a series that will stick with me forever. I'm still not sure what exactly happened. Reading through dozens of pages of theories on @goodreads after I finished the last book gave me an immensely deeper understanding though - there were dozens of observations there that helped me see what an absolute artist Vandermeer is with storytelling, the layers that he wove together are amazing. I'll definitely read them again. But I would love love big love to hear thoughts on the books from anyone who has read them? Talk to me. Questions? Theories? Thoughts?? . I love the weird. I don't like horror, and don't like being scared (I have anxiety and telling the waitress I ordered the side salad not these fries is scary is scary enough for me omg thank you I need a Xanax bye). But I like creepy, sci-fi, mystery, suspense. I love #weirdscience and #timetravel and things that make you think deep. These are it. . Chat? (Also, any other mildly creepy locations in the PNW area that we should visit? This old spooky fort is along where Lewis & Clark traveled, cool history. There's a "haunted" hike I wanna check out. Give me your recommendations. . #whatimreading #booksarelife #talknerdytome #bookdiscussion #weirdbooks #scifibooks #sciencefiction #scifi #weirdosunite #booksuggestions #creepyplaces #spookyplaces #shesawitch #witchyvibes #spiralstaircase #oldbuildings #abandonedplace (at Fort Stevens State Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMG0fKuhmQf/?igshid=1303oe66ervoh
