The Columbia County Courthouse, located in Dayton, Washington,was built in 1887 and was designed by the prominent architect Kirtland Cutter, who also designed the Spokane County Courthouse and the Davenport Hotel in Spokane.

The courthouse was built at a cost of $50,000 and was constructed using locally sourced sandstone. The building is an excellent example of Romanesque Revival architecture, with its arched windows, ornamental corbelling, and decorative stonework.

Over the years, the courthouse has undergone several renovations and additions. In the early 1900s, a clock tower was added to the building, which became a prominent feature of the Dayton skyline.

Born in Montana, raised in California, I have been holding a camera most of my life. I particularly love photographing the grand landscapes of the Pacific Northwest. Involved in photography all my life--starting out as a model for my father, a terrific photographer in his own right. Got my first Brownie Box Camera as a child, and have never looked back. Got serious when I inherited my father's Kodak 35mm viewfinder camera, then moved on to Single Lens Reflex cameras. Finally joined the digital revolution in the fall of 2006. Today, most of my work is done with a Nikon D810 digital SLR fitted with various Nikkor and Sigma lenses.
