Last summer we stayed for a few nights in a little lovely town of Yachats Oregon. About ten or so miles north of it is the town of Waldport. It is not a big town but it seats on the Alsea Bay and HW 101 crosses it, providing some shelter for boats and opportunity for some photography. I think we went twice to this place for sunset photos, this one was on the first night.
Thanks in Advance!

Very nice color. Just curious, did you use a CPL filter?
nope, no filters.
Reblogged this on KAJ's Blog.
Absolutely beautiful!
Love a sunset!
Really beautiful!
Love the west coast. Great photo.
me too. we just came back from California central coast, it was absolutely beautiful.
Beautiful capture. I like the soft shading in the clouds.
Wonderful, as always
Gorgeous!
Great sunset shot of tiny Waldport’s main attraction… the bridge!!
Great color! Great clarity and lighting.
My best shot of that bridge is this B&W:

Waldport is kinda famous for drifting sands that cover houses every winter. Its not the greatest photography, but pictures of the drifting dunes covering homes are in this gallery:

Nice photos, and that sand is crazy, almost like a snow in a winter time… snow melts in the spring, that sand will stay there for good
Beautiful colors in the water reflection.
Beautiful shot! And gorgeous colours!
gorgeous pictures my friend
it’s great….
very likes you shoot….
So pretty!
beautiful!
Such pretty colours, and the way the light picks up the ripples is beautiful. I also love the way the sky is a totally different colour above and below the bridge. Sky and water – you can’t go wrong.
That is a gorgeous photo, wish I could take shots like that! How much was your camera?
Thanks! I use Nikon D90, which is around $1200, but it is failry old now and you can get more recent release, which is Nikon D7000, goes for about $1500. Canon has the same type of cameras but I’m not familiar with their models.
Waldport and Yachats are lovely towns. I fell in love with that area when we camped near Waldport a couple of years before we moved to Oregon. Awesome photo!!!
Beautiful! You do get around, and when you capture scenes from places we’ve been, your photos make me anxious to return.
Love this part of the OR coast! Love Yachats! nice work, as always.
That sky and its fine colors and the reflections in the water – is great!
Gorgeous colours! The golden hour. Beautiful.
