Northwest Wanderer Posted May 21, 2016 Share #1  Posted May 21, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I take this image every year from the viewpoint at Ecola Park. It seems this past winter, storms eroded the hillside and the view platform was washed down to the sea. Now I just stand at a safe distance and take my images. You have to respect the power of nature. VL 114   Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

I have a few locations I photograph every year for the pleasure of it. I find it interesting to see what has changed and what is the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
platypus Posted May 26, 2016 Share #5  Posted May 26, 2016 War, that is so true. I have a few locations I photograph every year for the pleasure of it. I find it interesting to see what has changed and what is the same.   Many photographers must do the same, I certainly do, I have some places and old favourites that I return to like a homing pigeon, but probably more seasonally rather than yearly.  Bill your lovely photo shows an amazing and very beautiful wild vista, maybe it is better off for having lost it's viewing platform, though I imagine it will be rebuilt, ya gotta have your platforms and picnic tables after all.

Â Worse than the viewing platforms and the picnic tables are the "people" in their fluorescent pink jackets that they attract. Â They lurk in the corner of your viewfinder and you wait forever for them to move on until you have either lost the light or the mood. Â Boy am I cranky today.

Northwest Wanderer Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share #7  Posted May 26, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Dee, I'm happy that the viewing platform has washed into the sea. Nothing is more enjoyable than seeing nature win over man. When I looked and saw it missing, the view seemed much better to me.  War, I can understand your comment. When I see people viewing nature it's easy to tell which ones appreciate it and those that are just looking blindly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
