smell the sea, and feel the sky 

let your soul and spirit fly, into the mystic…”

  1. To be at Cannon Beach on a relatively calm day, you lucked out. One of my older friends loves to surf. He’s surfed the Mavericks and some tall waves at Sunset Beach and Banzai Pipeline on Oahu. One day, he says he would like to surf close as possible to Cannon Beach. Beautiful photos!

      • You are most welcome Jayne, I know how hard it can be sometimes to keep the editing natural looking, I know I fall foul sometimes of over editing!
        When they released the Nik software for free, I thought at first it was a dream come true for everyone, but now I see so many massively over edited photos, I’m beginning to change my mind! Lol! 🙂
        But then again, by far my most popular photo on Facebook, is just such a photo! Lol!

  21. Jane, what a breathtaking group of photographs. “Old Froends” in particular appeals to me – there’s something about the two men walking away and that distant arch that’s like a window, giving endless possibilities – but it’s in the mist – perfect. “Beachwalkers” has a similar feeling for me. I like “Driftwood” very much too, and of course the colorful Sea stars and their titles. And the fog and reflections – all wonderful work.
