Ron Cooper captures the Palouse with drone camera in June 2021

Professional photographer Ron Cooper of Salem, Oregon, visited the Palouse country of eastern Washington in June 2021. He gave permission to share these three photos he took with his drone camera.

He said, “We were in Eastern Washington at the right time.  Most of the wheat fields were still a beautiful green, and the moon was full.”

For a Palouse rolling hills photo in June 2021, Ron Cooper of Salem, Oregon, didn't use his drone. Instead he used a 600 mm telephoto lens that "compresses all the hills together. The early evening lighting skims the surfaces emphasizing the textures."
