Frosty Morn

Woke up to 27 degrees and a heavy frost. It has turned out to be a pretty sunny day with a high of 45. Except for stepping out briefly to get some photos, I've not been motivated to go out. Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy

Cannon Beach

We had precious little time to get to Cannon Beach but we were determined to make it before sunset. Cannon Beach is about a 30 minute drive from Astoria. These photos were taken at Ecola State Park and the place is simply breathtaking. I am afraid my photos do not do it justice. I had little light and no tripod so they are a bit soft and grainy. I will have to make a trip back again.

We braved the elements and a risky pathway to get to this cliff but it was worth it. Paul & Cindy enjoying the spectacular view.

The first thing we saw upon entering the park were elk.

    Stunning photos. So moody! Darkness. Gray skies. Silhouettes.

    Such a gorgeous spot! I just love moody, stormy beaches like this.

    I like the soft quality of some of the pictures, they paint the brooding mood of the weather nicely and are a nice contrast to the other sharp images. I've never been to Cannon Beach. Must go there soon!
