July 29: Day 203

I took this shot in Pacific City as I was hunting around for good family photo locations before the family photo session I did that evening. I've been to Pacific City a hundred times or more and I've never seen this boardwalk but now I know how to find it again!

June 12: Day 156

Landscape photography is probably my least favorite genre of photography. I enjoy details which is probably why I like macro photography so well. I'm rarely inspired to photograph a landscape but spending quality time on Jim and Jane's deck in Sisters, OR looking at this view for a few days made me give it a try. For the record, this photo does NOT do this view justice. It's absolutely beautiful! Friday night featured a gorgeous pink sunset but unfortunately I was stuck inside trying to get restless and excited kids to go to sleep in a sleeping bags in a strange place. Thus, the daytime photo.

April 24: Day 107

The last night we were at the beach there was a beautiful sunset that I naturally took advantage of! I don't have a lot of practice with sunset shots since I don't have a great view of the sunset from our yard. It was hard to deal with the rather bright sun. I was hoping for some pretty colors but all we got was gold. The ocean was pretty angry with bigger waves then usual. The big waves created the piles of frothy fluffy stuff that covered the beach. I have more photos of the fluff I may post later.
