Oregon

Crashing Into Your Soul

The sound of the crashing waves shakes you to your core. Near Yachats, Oregon. A beautiful day in October, fall temperatures in the air, whale watching season in full swing, it's a magical place.

Goodnight to the world. Moment of beauty from mother nature.

Watching the sun slide from behind the clouds, to cross behind the horizon. Another day lived.

Cannon Beach, Oregon

Around the corner, a road that takes you on a new journey. Oregon.

Into the trees. A calm and cloudy day on the Oregon Coast. Heceta Head Lighthouse Beach.

Just as the sun dips on the Oregon Coast, the sky just lights up even more. Photographed in 2013 in Yachats, Oregon.

Spring time on the Oregon coast can make for some interesting weather. Two springs in a row, our visits to the Oregon Coast in April provided for some interesting textures unlike our visits any other time of year. The water on many rocky areas came crashing in with this milky appearance. Absolutely a unique experience!

A perfect walk from a city park, over a gorgeous river to land on a stunning Oregon beach.

This sunset in Yachats, Oregon was absolutely stunning. My recent trips to this same location have not produced nearly as gorgeous a sunset, so I often look back at this 2013 trip. Hoping to have another beautiful sunset trip to this location next year!

Lost in a mossy forest. I could walk through this forest and never want to leave. Oregon Coast, Pacific Northwest.

Along the Columbia River Gorge Highway, there's often amazing scenery around every corner. Tall mountains, sheer cliffs and steep rocky ledges. And among it all is the incredibly lush forest. Took a bit of a different take on this photo than my normal style but I really felt this deserved something different and unique.

Drive Through Oregon Forest

Driving through Oregon forests is like driving through a fairy tale for me. Endless green and color. Endless trees and nature. Lush and vibrant, all around, and it never gets old. :)

The fog dancing in the sunlight along a scenic drive in the beautiful forests of Oregon.

Clouds collecting on the horizon but lifting just enough for a gorgeous sunset on a cool fall day in Oceanside, Oregon.

A foggy day on the coast of Oregon can present you with an array of different colors depending on so much, and it can seem to vary from one storm to the next. It's one of the amazing wonders of the Oregon coast, and the nature mother naure provides us. This overlook is from Ecola State Park, overlooking Cannon Beach shoreline. Off in the distance you can see Haystack Rock!
