Took a short trip to the Oregon coast this weekend, wanted to get down to Cannon Beach before the weather turned to crap for the winter. it was beautiful most of the afternoon, but right at sunset, the clouds started rolling in. i'd been wanting to get some shots of the vivid colors in the sky, but not this time. when i got home, though, and processed a couple of the images, i found i liked this one even better! i already have a "sunset colors" image from this spot, and this one is much more striking and dramatic... 5D, 24-135 @ 24mm, 1/15 @ f/13.

really nice and nomination worthy. I am just not sure if it's tilted a little.

Love the cloads and the reflection of the sun in the water. Very nice!

thanks, Bambi... the right side looks a tad higher, but it's an illusion created by the small ledge at the bottom right of Haystack Rock...

I would have killed to have weather like this on my trip, I thought Oregon coast was solid grey unless there is a 60 mph wind. Nice shot.

The play of the light with the clouds and water are beautiful. Definitely deserving of a nomination.
