The dune shot is ultra-cool. Great timing on the light!
Thanks, Linda! I didn't have the energy to walk ankle deep in the soft sand, so I cheated and shot from the road where I took the shot of the bridge. But I've always wanted to photograph dunes from the ridges with the leading lines and shadows.

Thank you, Dennis--I have long counted Oregon in my top three treasured destinations. This was my sixth visit to the state and, sadly, the last. Can only imagine what all I have missed with such brief time spent at any one place.

These are all quality shots, Diane! Very well done.
With the quality of your own portfolio, I am very appreciative of your kind words. You have exquisite flower images and I like that you hold onto depth of field--my preference.

You do a great tour!
Thanks, Mike! I think it goes something like paying it forward--I see other photographers' pictures of places that look enticing to visit, I plan my trips with inspiration from those images, then try to do likewise. Whether or not I succeed at it, I sure have a lot of fun trying!

All are beautiful! Heceta Head Light is absolutely spectacular. 
Sure appreciate the thumbs up! Heceta is iconic for a good reason, it sits along such a beautifully curved coastline for creating nice compositions. So glad you liked my attempt to do it justice. Thanks, alx!
