Oregon Coast

This is on the dark side but it was taken about 10-15 minutes after the sun had set, and this is pretty much the way the scene looked when I captured it.

 

We were actually just talking about packing up and leaving when I looked over my shoulder and saw the sky starting to turn. I had actually given up on the sunset altogether, as it really didn't look like it would amount to anything.

 

On a side note, the whole 2 hours we were hanging around this spot, the coast guard helicopter was flying around in search of a man that was swept out to sea just down the beach from here... It's a very tragic incident that seem to always repeat itself along the Oregon coast during this time of year. Here is a link to the article:
