Tide Pool, Yachats, Oregon
Sunrise and low tide. What a great combination! Walking along the coast in Yachats, Oregon at sunrise on a stormy day in October was incredible. For just a few minutes before the tide began rising again, lots of sea life was visible. It really was an incredible sight. With the soft morning light, the colors of the sea came to life as I was able to get right down to the edge of the pools. I don’t get to the ocean often enough, and when I do I never know just what I might find. It is always different, but never disappointing. This particular morning was no different.
While photographing this particular tide pool, I lost track of time and my path back to shore was nearly submersed. Yes, I got a little wet that morning, but it was so worth it. As the tide began rising again, the wave became quite ferocious and began pounding into the rocky shoreline, creating quite a scene and completely submersing the tide pools and the life that filled them. I was back to photographing the power of the sea for the next couple of hours.
