While leading a recent workshop along the Oregon coast I came upon a rock about 500'below the cliff we were shooting on on the pulloff just south of Haceta Head Lighthouse. These are harbor seals taking a siesta. It's hard to tell but these animals are really pretty huge and weigh quite a lot. I am glad I was far away!

something is going on with web compression or something...this image is totally soft and almost looks out of focus.....how are you sharpening your images for web presentation????
it does look like a cool place to be and for sure a good tourist spot!!!!
I think I know this Heceta Head lookout location, and I'm guessing these are Steller sea lions, the same critters that frequent Sea Lion Caves immediately south of this lookout point. They sure can make a racket, can't they.
