Kiwanda at Sunrise

All of the excellent images from this spot posted lately have encouraged me to work up one of mine again and post it. Looks like this spot is becoming quite popular! Shot from the very end of Cape Kiwanda on the Oregon Coast last Thanksgiving. Thanks for looking! Chip

    Beautiful view. The cyans in the sky and ocean balance the reds and magentas in the rocks/sunset really well.

    Great detail and beautiful colors. It is almost to much for the senses! I didn't know your middle name was Kiwanda. lol!

  27. Ryan McGinty (29 months ago | reply)

    The blue water sets this image apart from the others. I've noticed your more into bold color tones for areas in your photographs recently. Only way I can describe it as color layering. Great balance. Ry
