Ecola Sunrise

Posted by Steve Rice (Olympia, United States) on 17 June 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

Sunrise from Tillamook Head looked much the same as sunset the day before. Lots of fog. The light rain that was falling as I was setting up in the dark stopped as it got light.

Part of the Oregon Coast series.

I like the way you placed the tree relative to Haystack Rock. The fog enhances the shot for me. I like the way the shoreline gradually disappears in the mist. Nice one.
