I have been going there and taking shots of Yaquina for years. This is one of the best I have seen. Getting a clear day alone is a challenge most of the year. Nice work.

Is it just me, or does it look like CGI?

@Blair Is this CG? When was this picture taken? A picture was taken in 1996 of the light house and the little house next to the light house didn't have 2 stacks on it, it only had one on the left. Also one side of it is very dirty. Was it a real picture enhanced by CG? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:YaquinaHeadLighthouse_wb.jpg

Some corrections on the info: The Yaqunia Head Lighthouse is known to no one as the "Cape Foulweather Lighthouse" as Cape Foulweather is 5 or so miles north. Additionally, the Yaqunia River spills into the ocean a few miles south of the Yaqunia Head Lighthouse in Yaqunia Bay, nearer to the equally beautiful Yaqunia Bay Lighthouse. I lived just a little south of the lighthouse for most of my life, so pardon me if I'm a stickler for it's specifics. Thank you
