Haystack Rock, iconic Oregon Coast landmark, is thought to be 10 to 17 million years old, born in the lava flows that created much of the Oregon Coastlines basalt formations. Originally connected to the coast, eons of erosive action have now created a separation, making the monolith an intertidal sea stack. Still accessible by land at low tide, the 235 foot tall rock is home to many interesting intertidal species and is a nesting site for local sea birds. This accessibility, however, warrants caution. The US Coast Guard often finds itself rescuing tourists who have lost track of time and are trapped by high tide. This wonderful location is near the small Oregon beach town of Cannon Beach on the Oregon Coast.
The natural, cyclical, tidal rise and fall of sea levels is generated by the gravity pull of the Moon and the Earth alignment, the Earth￿s rotation, the pattern of the deep ocean tides, the shape of the coastlines and the depth of the near shore. Tidal variations...

Creating portals of light, love, joy, beauty, compassion, hope and gratitude is my lifelong passion and purpose. My mother painted when i was young and encouraged drawing and painting and handcrafting in all forms and my father, the photographer, gave me my first camera at age 8. As a result, i have been a lifelong student of both mediums. Formal training of my eye and technique has been with the wonderful Pacific NW painter teachers, Stan Capon and Edi Olson. i hope you will enjoy these images as much as i enjoyed their creation.
