Horizontal B&W Photograph: a wave comes rolling in from the lower right corner of the image, coming in diagonally, then arcing back to the center of the image where it explodes into a giant blast of spray where it encounters a the jutting cliff face coming in from the left side of the image (and, unseen, where it crashed into the previous swell rebounding off the taller cliff face along the left edge of the image). Just above the top of the spray, further in the distance, the Cape Disappointment Lighthouse is visible atop its cliff. The water between the wave and the cliff face is frothy white.

Big Splash, Cape Disappointment State Park, Washington, B&W

This giant splash was caused by an incoming wave hitting a wave rebounding off the cliff face.

Waves crashing agains cliffs, Cape Disappointment State Park, Washington. Horizontal black-and-white photograph. A line of frothing waves races in from the right side of the frame, spray blowing off their foamy tops. On the left side of the image, just above the midline, the lead wave smash into the black rock cliffs of the shoreline.

Horizontal color photo: The Cape Disappointment Lighthouse sits atop a rocky cliff at the edge of the ocean in Cape Disappointment State Park in Washington, State. The fog and mist soften and mute the lighthouse and the cliff in the upper right half of the image. In the foreground, more rocky cliffs extend down from the upper left of the image , with one running diagonally down and the straight across the middle of the frame. A wave breaks against this cliff, just left of center, sending watery spraying up and back.

Cape Disappointment Lighthouse, Washington

First visit to the Cape Disappointment Lighthouse. The misty rain and fog provided atmosphere even without great waves.

Black-tailed Deer Amidst Ferns A Columbian black-tailed deer pauses to take a look at me before resuming its morning grazing along a fern-covered hillside in Cape Disappointment State Park in Washington. Horizontal color photograph: the female deer is standing amidst large green ferns. You can follow its body in from about the middle of the left side of the frame until you reach its head which is just to the right of the center of the frame, with it's eyes above the centerline of the image. The doe is brown furred, with a white path at her throat and chin, and a thin circle of white fur around he black nose. Her ears are perked up, and she's staring straight into the camera.
