04/17/11 - Week 226 Seal Rock At Low TideI'm still hanging around the Oregon Coast with my image for this week. This image was taken at Seal Rock. Seal Rock can be found about half way between Yachats and Newport. The best time, I think, to go to Seal Rock is at very low tides. Minus tides are the best. If you are going to go out exploring and photographing the tidal pools please remember a few things. Wear shoes or boots with non slip soles. Some of the growth on the rocks is very slick. Please watch where you walk. When the tide is out this far you are walking on things that are alive. It can be plant or animal but the odds are it is alive. Try not to kill it. Take a tripod, a CP filter and shoot low. I suggest both a wide lense and one for close work. It is an interesting place to play with macro photography. Yes I did do a little HDR work on this one. More on that in the blog. Link below. If you would like to read some of my ramblings on this image and the photography side of it, you can wander over to my blog and get the long version of this story. Have a great week!
