I finally made it to the coast! Though I have been trying to kick the vertical trend I’ve been on lately, it is hard to avoid when shooting lighthouses. I just love the simple elegant lines of the Cape Blanco Light. It sits on the westernmost point in Oregon and is one of the harder lighthouses to get to as it is a few miles off the main highway and I have learned the hard way that the gates are not open early in the morning, limiting access at the best time of day to shoot this landmark. However, even at mid afternoon it looks pretty good. I did process for detail and brightened center. I had it more saturated but decided I preferred a more subtle look.
