For me, this photo represents contentment. There is contrast between the darkness of the hills on both sides of the river, and the bright yellow of the sunlight just beginning to set. There is harmony and balance between the dark hills, as well as the river and sky, giving one last bit of warmth to all it touches.
This picture represents home to me. I grew up in the little town on the left in the Columbia River Gorge. Growing up, this was mainly a logging town. Time changes, and logging is mostly a thing of the past. River Tourism is the now the newest economy booster where windsurfers float like butterflies across the river, bringing new life, and needed income to a struggling community.

This is another picture of the same area but from a different angle. One of the most beautiful places on Earth . There is great contrast between the gold of the sky reflecting on the water, and the trees and hills in shadow.

This picture also shows good contrast between the bright red and yellow of the sails, to the grey of the water, and the blushish hue of the hills behind. These are the butterflies on the water. This is what is bringing tourist dollars to the Gorge.
