Description
Surely one of the most visited and photographed landmarks on the Oregon coast, Haystack Rock, is well deserving of its fame! I arrived in Cannon Beach one evening in late spring 2014, not knowing it was practically the eve of the 50th annual Sandcastle Contest! Naturally that made it difficult to find a place to stay, but after a few stops I found a place right on the beach with Haystack Rock right outside the window (well....right outside and a little to the left....). The beachfront location was perfect for a quick trip out at sunrise. The delicate and ethereal clouds and color were intoxicating. Haystack Rock is a 235-foot (72-meter) intertidal sea stack accessible from land at low tide. The Haystack Rock tide pools are home to many intertidal animals, including starfish, sea anemone, crabs, chitons, limpets, and sea slugs. The rock is also a nesting site for many sea birds, including terns and puffins. It is also a magnet for photographers, attracting many at dawn and dusk to try to capture the magic.

I know this rock well and you are right, it is a magnet for photographers at dawn and dusk. This is a beautifully presented image.
