Bandon Sunset

This beach is one of my favs. There are SO many compositions here, and the tide and light are constantly changing what the scene can give you. This composition was literally just dropping my tripod, levelling the camera and firing away – @tomhill_photography and I drove a ridiculous number of miles in a ridiculous amount of time and this was our farthest reach for this trip. Sadly, we both had some lens condensation issues on this beach as we just came from Panther Falls in the Columbia River Gorge and our larger lenses did not have the time to properly acclimate. My 11-24 sat in my bag for this shoot 🙁 Anyhow, I shot 13 exposures in total as the light faded and ended up blending 3 of them together. One for the sky, one for the stacks and one for the foreground.
