Beautiful shot. Almost a b&w. I like the suble colors which I didn't know a digital camera could do. Perfect.

Bonjour Gerald,
cette ambiance coupe le soufle.
On y sent des conditions qui semeblent difficiles, ou alors, ce sont les lumières qui donnent cette impression.
Une terre bien sauvage en apparence.
Excellent cadrage mais aussi encadrement.
Have a great week-end.
Daniel.

Hello Gerald, I like the layers captured here. It could almost be a black and white shot,but we can still see tinges of blue and it is this that makes the shot quite special.
I like the fog which adds to the composition, and the silhouetted tree completes the scene.
Tfs, regards Jean.

I was born and raised in Oregon. I participate in local and many international photography web sites. I've seen a lot of pictures taken from this very spot. I have photography friends that live in Cannon Beach, Oregon who take pictures of Haystack Rock on a regular basis.

This much I know... I never get tired of seeing this and other views of Haystack Rock. There is something mesmerizing about it that never grows old.

Btw, you may not know this but within the last week or so TWO of three canons from the 1846 warship the USS Shark, for which Cannon Beach is named, washed up on the beach within 100 yards where the first cannon from it washed up on shore way back in 1898.

That is near where you took this photo and a pretty cool bit of Northwest history!

Hi Gerald,
The foggy mist really gives this landscape a mysterious romantic feel. There are many layers to the rocks and hills as they lead to the lovely muted silver blue sky. The foreground tree adds nice scale and definition to this outstanding image.

Hi Gerald

Wonderful graphism in this superb coastal scene. I like the minimalist colour, & outstanding contrast & sharpness. Well done!

Wonderful effort, Gerald!
Man... it looks like a painting.
Perfect POV and management of light, it doesn't get any better than this.
Cheers,
Fulvio.

Hi Gerald
I have a shot from here that I took last September but it is nowhere as nice as this one. The lone pine reminds me of an A Y Jackson painting. Great shooting. This is going to my favourites.

Gerald,
This is a special atmospheric view and photo.You captured the attractive scene in a great moment and in a fine way you composed thelements there.a nice contrasted work,allthings are real but dreamy like a parts of a night dream.
I thing the strong element here is the " wind" that show itself strongly !
nicely done

Hi, Gerald. This is a stunning view. The depth is really extraordinary here with the rocks first and then all the succession of ridges coming down towards the ocean. The tree on the left balances the composition very well.

Hi gerald
very beautifull landscape. The light and the grey color is very nice. The shade od the dead tree give a dramatic sens.
Excellent

Hi Gerald,
Wonderfully composed and superbly shot. The low lying fog, the sense of depth and the almost monochromatic view is absolutely superb my friend.
Best regards. Salvator.

Hi Gerald,
The scenery is impressive as your fabulous compo makes great justice to it. One can really feel the power of the wind blowing. The silhouette of the tree enhances the dramatic mood.
A great work indeed. TFS.
Regards, José.
