Power of the Pacific

The power of the Pacific Ocean is often on display along the Oregon coast. Mariners used to refer to these latitudes as the ‘Roaring Forties.’ High winds create large swells. Most of the time the Oregon coast is swaddled in fog too. But occasionally the sun comes out, the wind blows, the swell rises, the full moon pulls the ocean a little higher and photographers rejoice. We recently found reason to rejoice in the power of the Pacific. We hope you will find enjoyment in these images too.
