Three Minutes at the Pacific Ocean

Three Minutes at the Pacific Ocean                               ©2006 Alan Schrank

In the fall of 2006 I took a camping trip down the Oregon coast.  I've been revisiting the images I took on that trip after being reminded by seeing a very nice picture of the Peter Iredale. 

This image was taken in the early morning, but well after sunrise.  I was standing on a rock above the beach.  Since the scene was so bright, I placed a whole bunch of nuetral density on my lens so that I could get a long exposure (3 minutes) that averaged away the waves crashing on and over the rocks.
