The Grotto

One of the stops on our trip to Mt. Raineir was the Grotto.  It is on the outskirts of Portland, OR.  We have wanted to visit this area and took the time before we left.  We didn't have much time and didn't see the whole area.  This type of photography isn't for everyone, but there was a couple of things I found interesting.  And, I wanted to share them with you.  We really had a strange feeling about this place.  I don't know how to explain it.  I could tell it was a very special for many people and a place for meditation.  However, we felt it had to much of a commercial feeling to it.  Just our feeling.  These are the images I felt were interesting and had some power to them.
