Private Beach, a photo from Oregon, West

Photographer's Note

Oregon coast has many small nice bays. Some of them are remote and not crowded. It gives the feeling of a private beach. If you take a good look, you can see 2 people on the beach, one of them brave enough to enter the cold water.
This was a fogy morning, and that added a nice touch to the trees on the background.

Yes, what I like the most is the fog on the top of the photograph. The distance you took it is nice too.

I love the foggy atmosphere in this one, Efi - it really makes a special finishing touch to this actually quite cold-looking scene. You found a very good vantage point to have this small bay framed by the foliage in front, and the rocks on the righthand side. Yes, quite daring of the one person to step into the Pacific, not sure if I would have wanted to join :o) Well done, the natural and rugged look is really nice on this one.

Hi Efi, it's a well framed shot that shows us you live in a beautiful area, in general it's rather dark due to the weather, but some light falls onto the beach and it's pleasant to look at, the fog adding a touch of mystery a a welcome bonus.

Beautiful place, Efi. The POV adds much interest to the scene. Your composition is wonderful with the plants used for framing and the small beach looks wonderfully situated. The fog adds a nice atmosphere. Very good photo. :o)

Beautiful atmosphere. The fog adds to the mysterious nature of the shot and of a hidden beach feel. It's like coming out of the fog to find this paradise looking little piece of the world. I like how you frame it with the trees adding depth. The diagonal from here of the water is also excellent to draw the eyes right in to those people. The breaking water also helps by pointing toward the beach. This is a great find you have made here and you show it to us perfectly, making me envious of such a setting.

Oh a fine and special place, which I believe to have seen similar in greece and spain - but that water surely looks cold - glad you got the people to gives the dimensions of this nice beach - thanks Efi for showing us this private paradise.

Efi, I would say this is mystically misty and mysterious, private and enclosing, with a dreaded feeling with a sense of foreboding. Thankfully, a little relief from a touch of colors, on the framing on the lowerleft side.

A nice capture Efi, with the colours perfectly reflecting the nature of this coast.
Regards.
