These are beautiful. I love the shoreline with the person sitting on the driftwood.

I have driven through these two states on 2 or 3 occasion driving down the west coast usually ending up in Las Vegas. Most recently in 2018 I intended to explore more of the great northwest but only wound up visiting crater lake and Mt. St. Helens, both of which are represented here. I have too many for one day so her goes day one. On the last two shots the lighthouse is the same on both. I simply selected it and copy\pasted it onto the cliff on the panorama. I hope I'll be able to drive out there again and see more of the northwest before my health prevents it.
I'll have another 10 of the area tomorrow and then down to California or possibly to Montana.

Great pix! I'm still amazed at the 'hole' the Mt. St. Helens' eruption left in the side of the mountain. And I see the foliage has really come back since about three months after the eruption.

Wonderful series of photos. I really like the lighthouse captures. What are the names of the lighthouses featured in your series?


The second to the last is called Heceta Head Lighthouse and is one of the most photographed lighthouses on the Oregon Coast. It is located 13 miles north of Florence, Or. It was built in 1891-1893 using a first-ordered Fresnel lens made in England. It is also the only first-order rotating Fresnel lens in Oregon, each lens being 6 feet in diameter. There are six orders and the first is largest. There are a total of 8 lenses each consisting of over 200 pieces of glass. It was first lit in March 30, 1894. The Light was automated on July 20, 1963. It's light can be see as far as 21 nautical miles away, making it the strongest light on the Oregon coast. Heceta Head Lighthouse was placed on the National Register for Historic Places in 1978. The light is now operated as a private aid to navigation (PATON), under state management.

I recognized Heceta Head lighthouse, but the other lighthouse I do not know.


The first of the three light houses looks like the North Head Lighthouse in Washington State. It is located in the southwest corner of the state.
