A silhouetted, windswept tree stands on a coastal cliff overlooking a calm ocean at twilight. The sky transitions from deep blue at the top to warm orange and yellow hues near the horizon, reflecting softly on the water. A distant island or peninsula is visible across the bay, and the overall mood is tranquil and contemplative.

A long-exposure nighttime photo of a rugged coastal cliffside under a star-filled sky. The Milky Way glows brightly on the left, arching above a forest of silhouetted pine trees. The calm ocean reflects faint light and the blue glow of bioluminescence algae, with sea stacks and scattered kelp visible in the water. A soft glow appears near the horizon, and the photo has a peaceful, ethereal quality.

bioluminescence algae and Milky Way. Mother Nature doesn’t always cooperate, but she opened up the skies long enough for us to capture beauty from as high as the heavens and as low and the ocean waters. #milkway #bioluminescencealgae #PNWphotography #Stunday #MakahReservation #CapeFlattery #NeahBay
