I have been waiting for this green seaweed to grow again on some of these rocks in the tidal zone. It dies back in the summer and is brightest right about now. Now I just have to wait for a great sunset and the right tide at the same time.

Sandstone formations and concretions at Shore Acres Park on the Oregon Coast, USA. Winter waves crash 100 feet into the air and land on this sandstone, speeding up the weathering action.

One of my favorites from a great sunset evening at Cape Arago on the Oregon Coast, USA. This area has amazing geological formations, incredible sunsets, and dangerous seas. It is close to home so I go there often. A 3.2-second exposure for the water and a 0.6-second exposure for the sky with a 0.9 ND Hard grad filter.

I just wanted to share this image of this amazing section of the Oregon Coast. For just a few minutes the sunlight lit up the rocks and cast an orange glow on everything. Down below, near the water, is one of my favorite spots to capture seascapes. Because of the nominal sunset this evening I did not hike down but instead just shot a couple pics of this large bowl, slowly being enlarged by winter wave action. I would estimate it is about 200 feet wide and maybe 80 feet deep.

A short little side cliff hike accessible during low tide opens up to a large shelf with numerous tide pools. Sneaker waves can catch you as the tide comes in if your not careful.

Shot of some of the many cool sea stacks at the beach in Bandon, Oregon, USA. Intentionally oversaturated. I liked the cooked look on this one better than the more natural look. The sunset was lighting up the clouds some... but not this much. Still, not too far off what it really looked like.

The beach at Bandon, Oregon, USA. Taken the same evening as my "Face Rock" picture and another similar shot. The sunset did not materialize as I had hoped so I looked behind me at the coloring of the clouds and the tidepools. I love this picture.

Canola growing in the Palouse region of Washington State, USA. It was cool that there were these puffy clouds the day we drove through last June.
