Sunset With Haystack Rock and the Needles from Cannon Beach on the Oregon Coast
Sunset With Haystack Rock and the Needles from Cannon Beach on the Oregon Coast.."Back in the Saddle Again" Freshly back from my 10 day Oregon Coast Class and trying to get un-buried working in my Edmonds Gallery. What a fantastic group we had and a good mix of weather. I always experience so many great moments on trips like this with my students. Here is one of those moments that was extra special to me in this class: After finishing up shooting Thor's well, I walked up behind two of my students sitting on the ground showing each other their images. Thor's well is not for everyone and these two lovely laddies decided not to adventure out into the crazy surf. They shot from above and were taking time to review images together. Molly and Teri were busy looking each others cameras, and complimenting each other on their images. That is the beauty of teaching all in camera photography. They went back and forth for a while and it was so nice to hear the happiness in there voices over their photography and images they captured. Then I yelled out to Molly to show Teri the Heart she has captured while shooting the Spouting Horn. Molly had captured a blast of spray from the Spouting Horn that floated up in a perfect heart. Teri looked at it and says "Oh my Gosh, that is Amazing!" and then these two ladies (who had never met each other before my class).....Hugged!...And they are now friends and making plans to join me in an upcoming adventure together to the Grand Tetons. One of my favorite moments of this class. Well done ladies! This is Sunset From Cannon Beach Oregon, where we started this 10 day adventure! Thank you so much for looking!
