Coastal Sunset - Oregon

Last October I had the good fortune to make my first trip to the central Oregon coast. I made this sunset image on the beach near where we stayed in Lincoln City. It's rare to get scenes like this in Kansas ... no, wait a minute, it's impossible.

The light is indeed beautiful Wayne. The angry ocean sandwiched between the wonderful light and color makes this very dynamic. Gorgeous coastal scene.

The light bursting from the cloud formation is awesome.

This is wonderful, Wayne. Great colors and light. I really like the backlit cloud and the cool looking waves coming in.The reflection in the foreground also very nice. A beautiful scene and very nice work. I guess this would be a little hard to get in Kansas... :smile: .
The large version is especially nice to look at!!
