As we drove south to Yachats this evening, I shot a "drive-by" of Alsea Bay looking west; the bridge railing blurs in the immediate foreground as we go. A finger of fog is coming into the bay, past houses on a sand dune spit on the right. In the second photo, a fishing boat makes its way north as gulls take off from foreground tidepools. The third photo is a "sweep" shot of the ocean; the light on the fishing boat turns into a dotted line during the half-second exposure. And finally, another drive-by of the mouth of the Yachats River as we're moving slowly southeast, away from the setting sun. All photos taken within 15 minutes. How the light can change! ©Carol Leigh

ooh, ooh, ooh, I'm in love with the colors in the 2nd & 3rd images, particularly the reflected blue/purple/red at the bottom of image 2, also love the painterly sweep of color in #3. Not sure if I'm in love with the dotted line created by the boat...:0) makes me want to take a sunset drive. Sarah Merkel
I don't particularly like the dotted line from the light on the fishing boat, either, but I thought it was very weird how it was dotted rather than a solid slash, as I would have expected. Thanks, Sarah, for your comments. -- Carol Leigh
