Still working through a few stragglers from my Olympic Peninsula trip last Fall... I just haven't had the time since then to get away for much new shooting and the winter around here locally has been a total dud (photographically speaking.. but we are saving a lot on firewood and propane:)
Normally I look for more going on in the sky than there is happening here, but when you're traveling, the weather just has a mind of it's own and after all, I think the clean blue sky kind of adds to an overall simple, graphic effect on this one.
This is Second Beach, just south of La Push, WA.

Another view of some huge driftwood on the beach, this time on a rare clear evening at sunset. For most of the time I spent in this area, the beaches were totally fogged in, so this was a pleasant break. This spot is known as Second Beach and is just near the little native american fishing town of La Push. I have a pretty funny shot of about 30 or so photographers all shooting on this beach at the same time.. I think there was some workshop or something going on this particular day. You have to walk almost a mile through the forest to get here, so I was a bit surprised, but on second thought it IS known as probably the most photogenic beach in Washington and it seems like quite a few people choose to stay and camp out overnight when the weather is good. It lived up to it's reputation for beauty on this evening.
