Witnessing the eclipse from Oregon almost to entirety before it disappeared behind the clouds. A skunk ran right up to me before it saw me and then ran away. That was surprising and a relief it didn’t spray. #lunareclipse #westcoastkin #fullmoon

It’s a 4 to 5 hour drive for me. But if it were closer I would
Walk there all the time too. I think it’s my favorite Oregon beach
I love that beach and face rock.

There is beauty in the pain and the storm when you are able to push through it and see it for what it is-Through the fog and shadows. It's not all sunshine. #stunday #westcoastkin #fog #columbiarivergorge #beaconrock

Old round top barn. I heard it has since fallen.

I spotted a Barred owl a couple of weeks ago chasing a squirrel. I love owls. 🦉 #barredowl #owls #westcoastkin #pnw #pacificnorthwest
Amanita Muscaria- I was on a mission this Fall apparently to be able to capture this type of mushroom. This was an amazing patch of them. #amanitamuscaria #westcoastkin #pnw #fungus #mushroom

It has been on my bucket list to find and photograph an Amanita and finally this past weekend I found one. #mushrooms #amanita #fallmushrooms #pnwphotographer #pnwcollective #westcoastkin

Lacamas Lake hike this weekend. #pacificnorthwest #pnw #westcoastkin #fallcolors #waterfall #lake #autumn
Yesterday was amazing. The Fall leaves are at their peak around here. I can't get enough of the reds, golds, greens, orange, yellow.

This timed out very well. I did not realize it was going to be a high surf day. Better than King Tides for waves like this! This may be my most dramatic wave image I have been able to capture here. #highsurf #capedisappointment #pacficnorthwest #westcoast
