“Ponytail Falls”
Also called Upper Horsetail Falls, Ponytail falls emerges from two rounded faces of volcanic rock and gracefully drops into a shallow pool. I wanted to portray the gracefulness and serenity of this waterfall so I got down low into the stream where moss covered boulders dominated the foreground. the slow shutter speed and graceful lines in extract an elegance that is timeless.

Tranquil Tides” The scenic beauty of the seastacks offshore and headlands onshore make your stroll down the sand particularly memorable at Canon Beach . Fly a kite, watch the sea creatures in the tidepools, or take in a sunset on the famous Haystack Rocks. Relaxing on the beach is part of the Cannon Beach experience. The area is protected as part of the
"Tranquil Tides"
Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge as well as a designated National Wilderness Area. I had envisioned a spectacular sunset on the black sand beaches however when I saw the reflections in the wet sand as the waves receded I was compelled by this most peaceful scene. Waiting for just the right moment when the receding tide and reflection was perfect I exposed my film and knew I had captured something monumental.
