View From The North Jetty - a photo on Flickriver

This is a view from the North Jetty at the mouth of the Columbia River and the Cape Disappointment Lighthouse.

It was built 1908--1916. Following jetty construction, the Fort Canby (now Cape Disappointment) beach grew rapidly. The beach reached its maximum distance seaward in 1942, then began to erode.
The Long Beach Peninsula's first lighthouse, Cape Disappointment, had a bumpy beginning. As early as 1848, a government survey had recommended a lighthouse due to the great number of shipwrecks. Lighthouse construction materials were underway in 1853, stashed in the hull of the ship Oriole when it sank two miles off shore. While a few items were salvaged, the bulk of the shipment was lost.

My passion is outdoor art photography with a main concentration dealing with landscapes, sunrises, sunsets, and Mother Nature activity. In each artwork I try to relate a certain feeling or beauty at that precise moment. I also pay attention to many details as I am taking and processing the photo.
Visit the images at the link and I hope you enjoy them as much as I did taking and processing them. You can see my most popular photos at Canon Shooter on Facebook If you have any questions please contact me on FlickrMail. Remember all photography is copyrighted so please respect the Copyright.
