Southwest Oregon and Northwest California Beach Photography

I've explored the beaches of southwest Oregon and northwest California during the last month.  My most recent experience was at Whalehead Beach, Oregon.  This beach features a large, towering sea stack that dominates the landscape.  I captured some dramatic images of waves interacting with the rock tower using a telephoto 75-200 mm lens.  Another beach, which isn't too far from Whalehead, is at the mouth of the Pistol River in Oregon.  There are seastacks located north of the river, all of which make for interesting photographic subjects for seascape photography.  The final beach sits along the western edge of the Redwood National Park in California. Most of my views of this beach were from high above...but I found access to the water near the mouth of the Klamath River on the north edge of the park.
