Photo Sunday – Haystack Rock, Oregon Coast

Haystack Rock, Oregon City, Oregon

Thanks for visiting. This weeks Photo Sunday section has pictures of Haystack Rock, on the Oregon Coast. All pictures are clickable.

Low tide at the cliff face

We were lucky in that it was low tide, and walking out on the algae covered rocks presented a whole world of crustacean sea creatures.

A blow hole at low tide. Light and shadow

I like this on a lot. Check out the Barnacles on the interior walls.

Looking through the tree

Getting up here requires a long slog up a sand dune, but the tip is beautiful.

Water crashing on the rocks at the cliff bottom

Fortunately I’m not afraid of heights, so I was able to get this shot, over the edge.

Tide moving through the channed

The rock is smooth where the water rushes over it at high tide.

One last look back

My son lives in Portland, and while out to visit him, we drove out to Oregon City. If you’ve never been there, its well worth the trip. The drive through the forests and hills is really breathtaking.

I hope you enjoyed the photo’s, and we’ll see you next Sunday with Pics of the Potomac and Potomac bays, taken while Kayaking.
