Description
Looking at a map, this is the bottom left-hand corner of Washington State. If you want to know exactly where I took the picture, paste this into Google Maps:
46.271832,-124.073506
I'm out on the North Jetty. The Columbia River is to my right, the Pacific ocean is behind me and to my left, and I'm standing on a point of land that didn't used to be there.
Full view is better.

That looks like my kind of country.

That grass seems to define a kind of barrier, as if there's been a tectonic shift, or at least a shift in the geopolitical policies of various insects. What's even better is that this is such a great shot of a really rugged, hypnotic piece of bumpy land. I gotta get out that way, since the Midwestern Flats are really...um...well...it's just so flat here and it's time to move on. Eventually. I love the tawny golden colors and the greens, and then that sky and those rocks! Yeah, this is great. I should also tell you that this makes me think of some other environment: maybe where colonial activities are taking place, and at night--when you look up--you can see a visiting star that isn't a star at all, but the colonial operations ship, just hanging in orbit, doing the colonial operations ship thing. What's not to like about that?

a wonderful scene; I can almost hear the grass whisper in the wind; I can almost feel the sand blowing around my ears

Looks misty and windy; I can almost smell that ocean smell colliding with the river scents...beautiful capture of this edgy spot!

Excellent shot. I think you've captured the blustery weather well. And, yes, the ol' navigator in me had to check those coordinates in google map; definitely land's end - and not the clothing store. Great work.

I looked at Google Maps and found the coast is pretty unspoiled all the way up to the Canadian border. A beautiful place and great start for a trip north.

Wow - you were right on the point! Looks like an awesome place to fly the Phantom, although I suspect it's pretty windy there. An excellent shot, Tara - it really makes you feel like you're actually there.
