Photography Tour of the Oregon Coast

Oregon Coast Sunset, September, 2018.

I just completed a 2000-mile trip to revisit some of my favorite places in Oregon. Although I lived in Oregon for years in the 1980s and revisited a lot in the mid to late 2000s, I hadn’t been to some of these places in years. Even with 2+ weeks it wasn’t enough time, so I’ll just have to go back soon!

We’ll bring photographers back to our favorite places with a photography workshop in July 2019. It’s fun to return to the state where my career in digital imaging began, way back in 1985 at the Digital Printing and Imaging Division of Tektronix in Wilsonville, Oregon.

What’s your favorite place along the Oregon Coast?

I don’t know when I’ll get around to uploading all of my photos from my recent Oregon Coast photography tour, but here are a few images that I’ve uploaded so far.

Thank you Outdoor Photographer Magazine for honoring one of my photos from the Oregon Coast!

Congratulations to @jeffsullivanphotography for winning the recent Your Best Photo of 2018 Assignment with the image, Golden Hour on the Oregon Coast. “Sometimes, the most interesting photos we take are from a new location or from a fresh look at a place that we haven’t visited in a long time,” says Sullivan. “In 2018, I took a 2,000-mile road trip to revisit some of my favorite places in Oregon. Although I lived in Oregon for years in the 1980s and revisited a lot in the mid to late 2000s, I hadn’t been to some of these places in years. I had a great time on this latest lap, but even with 2-plus weeks it wasn’t enough time, so I’ll just have to go back soon! “My main exposure here was 1/8th of a second at f/16, ISO 200, and that produced a useful result, but HDR processing in Photomatix provided more shadow detail and highlight color, for a better overall result. The images were adjusted in Adobe Lightroom prior to HDR processing, then additional adjustment was conducted afterward as well.” * * * #OPAssignments #Oregon #landscape_lovers #sky_captures #landscapephotography #fantastic_earth #landscape_captures #ic_landscapes #ig_exquisite #ourplanetdaily #landscape #landscapelovers #instanaturelover #welivetoexplore #allnatureshots #specialshots #landscapestyles #nature_perfection
