A two story Mural of author Ken Kesey leaning against his bookshelf, which is stuffed with books, photos and keepsakes, including a large Uncle Sam style top hat, Oregon license plate, from his bus Furthur, and a miniature version of the bus done in the signature Merry Prankster marbled dip-paint style. A trophy and a Springfield pennant sit atop. Some of the bookcase is also composed of the windows of the building the mural is on. On the sidewalk, a single light blue cruiser bicycle is parked at a bike rack at Kesey's feet.

The setting sun peaks between two cloud banks, sillouetting two trees in the foreground. There is refraction caused by a physical filter on the camera, making there appear to to be two suns and an extra ghostly tree.

A large concrete block atop a pile of rocks, (part of Newport, Oregon's South Jetty) has the words "Eat the Rich" spray painted in white block letters. The Yaquina Bay bridge spans the water in the background. The camera was modified to capture more infrared light, giving the photo an otherworldly pink hue, especially the algae on the rocks and the hills back behind the bay.

A dirty cracked cup featuring the iconic pink and blue 90s squiggles known as "jazz"
This has been down a small hill behind my back fence for 15+ years, I finally paid my (now adult) child two dollars to retrieve it, worth every penny.

Psychedelic space eyeballs sculpture rises from amidst shrubbery with the Siuslaw River Bridge in the background. The muted colors of the bridge and trees behind it contrast with the brighter colors of the foliage and sculpture in the foreground.

I took this over the weekend, not realizing that they were planning on tearing it down this week to build a slightly larger gazebo. 🤷♂️

A very fancy classic car, probably 85 years old, parked in front of a corporate sandwich franchise.
Another angle, of the back of the car reflecting the cloudy sky in its polished black paint. The corpo sandwich shop is Open, per its lit up sign in the window, its drab vertical metal siding provides contrast to the soft curves of the classic car.
A lower angle, from the side and showing the front end of the car, also revealing its non-sandwich related surroundings: trees and another drab brown and tan building, this time vertical siding! It's a bank.
A sign across the parking lot that reads "Find Yourself in Waldport". Flat and mostly round, but depicting an old signpost, "find Yourself on top, pointing right and "in Waldport" below, pointing left, with waves on one side and trees on the other, referencing Waldport's other slogan: "where the forest meets the trees"
Somebody "found themself" in Waldport driving a very nice car to buy a very bad sandwich.

A large boxy building housing the Seawater Seafood Co., noted by a small sign on the front of the building which is otherwise completely covered with a mural of a Coast Guard helicopter over water with hills and clouds in the background, which are similar to the real clouds above the building. The right third of the frame is taken up by the blank side wall, showing some wear and tear. A yellow sports car is the lone vehicle parked on the street in front.

A vacant storefront in a boxy white building with a bright blue wall on its left and a red and yellow storefront with a faux shingled rooftop on the right. "MERCANTILE" was on both lower windows, but letters are now missing where panes were replaced, a recessed red door in between them has no steps to reach it. Wispy clouds are above and reflected in the upper windows. An unseen lamp casts a shadow.

An historic house sits mid-renovation in the rain. Parts of the exterior have been replaced with modern yellow siding, presumably to match the original color of the faded yellow shingles that still cover most of the structure.
