Precarious View

 
Within the last few weeks I've posted images from this spot on Hwy 101 south of Cannon Beach. Wednesday I rode by there again and stopped for a few shots. These three were sitting in what looks like a dangerous place. I thought I would post this familiar view again because they add a touch of drama.

    Oh now I am very homesick and jealous! Gorgeous shot, and the people definitely add to the drama and the vastness of the scene. Do you live at the coast? I know the weather has been gorgeous lately in Portland... Looks just as nice at the coast!

    Thanks Yolanda! I'm feeling kind of bad making you homesick but glad you get to see some of your NW. We live in the Portland area but have a little place at the coast. I usually stay at the coast when I work in the area. These last few days we are being blessed with good clear weather. As you know, I think that will change soon. :)

    Please don't feel bad about making me homesick! I'm living vicariously through your shots, and it brings me closer to home and makes me warm! It keeps me looking forward to my return and keeps me pushing through! So great that you have a place in both Portland and the coast. My home is actually in the 'couve and I have a home in the Canadian Rockies (BC). But I do enjoy Cannon beach so much - it is my favorite!!

    Beautiful. The layers of the mountains and the drama really make a nice composition. Love the pictures of Oregon. Sine my son lives just outside Salem your photos make me feel a bit closer to him.

    Yolanda,
    Thank you for clearing that up. I'm really happy but humbled by what you say about the photos here. It's nice that you have two homes. Cannon Beach is nice - I'll have to get some shots there, especially Haystack.

    Sue,
    Thank you very much for your kind comment. I hope you realize you're an Oregonian by default because your son lives here. :)
