I have posted this shot before but I got a new editing program this week and was able to put rays on the sun that the camera didn't pick up.. I think I'm gonna really like this new editor.. It is by Skylum which is the new name for Macphun and they are making their programs available to PC users now..
Looking out over the Pacific ocean on the Oregon coast, Haystack Rock sits under the band of the Milky Way galaxy.
Tried a little experiment for a Dark and Gloomy photo contest- Waiting on a bench at Cannon Beach in the pouring rain
Pacific City to Newport. 50 miles with one grueling painful climb due to a missed turn. But a wonderful sunny day otherwise.
Cannon Beach, Oregon Coast
Cannon Beach is a small coastal city in northwest Oregon. It’s known for its long, sandy shore. Standing tall in the ocean, Haystack Rock is a seasonal haven for tufted puffins.
On a headland to the north, trails in Ecola State Park offer sweeping views of the ocean, coves and a lighthouse. South is Arcadia Beach, with tide pools and a picnic area. Nearby Hug Point has sea caves. Boutiques and galleries dot downtown.
Haystack Rock is a 235-foot (72-meter) sea stack in Cannon Beach, Oregon. It is sometimes claimed locally to be the third-tallest such "intertidal" (meaning it can be reached by land) structure in the world, but there are no official references to support this.
A popular tourist destination, the monolithic rock is adjacent to the beach and accessible by foot at low tide. The Haystack Rock tide pools are home to many intertidal animals, including starfish, sea anemone, crabs, chitons, limpets, and sea slugs. The rock is also a nesting site for many sea birds, including terns and puffins.

"Look! A Dungeness Crab nursery!" squeals a volunteer from the Haystack Rock Awareness Program. These volunteers come out at low tide, keep people off the rocks and out of the tide pools ("step on sand only"), and answer questions. A couple other volunteers, and I, come over. She noticed that deep in the shadow under a rock in the tide pool, there was a huge number (I think the word "hundred" was said, or "hundreds") of baby Dungeness. She gently scooped one up in her hand with water, and pictures were taken. Neat. Looking here I guess this is a “Juvenile” which is a lot older than I’d have guessed, interesting web site www.dfw.state.or.us/mrp/shellfish/crab/lifehistory.asp
dusk at Cannon beach and Haystack Rock. This is 3 images in HDR put through Photomatix and touched up in photoshop CS3.

Sunsets on the ocean are definitely one of my favorite things to shoot. This was taken back earlier in the year when my wife and I finally made it to the great state of Oregon. We couldn't have picked out a better place to rest our heads for a few nights as this was the scene outside our room. I went down to the grassy area just steps from the beach to set up and enjoy the show. It was cloudy most of the day but we were rewarded with such a brilliant sunset right at the end. Haystack Rock is pictured to the right side of the frame.

After my shot when the warm color is gone, I found there is still one passion trying to capture the last light.
Caught a moment when the sun was setting @ one of my favorite beaches. Thank you for your appreciation, Gail
There are birds flying around up in the sky too.
Our Daily Challenge - Inspiration
Everything at this beach inspires me, it is a place I cherish and love. All aspects of Nature (birds, ocean, shells, haystack rock, sunsets) and the little town with its overabundance of flowers and art.
I spent a bit of time at Cape Kiwanda last week during low tide, and it was fun to do a bit of exploring.
I'm now kind of decompressing after a hectic (but fun!) Milky Way season. I'm looking forward to shooting during more normal hours in the coming months.
Thanks for checking out the photo!

Probably the best known of the Oregon's sea stacks, Haystack Rock at Cannon Beach soars 235 feet above the shoreline flanked by The Needles to the south (no pun intended). :-) At low tide, you can pretty much walk right up to it, checking out all the colorful exposed tidepools. Besides seagulls, tufted puffin can also be seen from now through mid-summer.
If it were a perfect world, I would gladly leave my normally unobtrusive watermark off in a corner. But sadly, it is not. And so I am forced to now place it front & center to discourage dishonest people from image theft and cropping watermarks. My apologies to image loving fans everywhere...I trust you will understand. Help fight this by reporting such abuses immediately!
