Iām a U.S. photographer, and the medium has been my major artistic outlet for nicely over fifty years now. I started as a panorama photographer and have explored different facets of pictures as nicely, however I at all times come again to the panorama. It’s my best supply of nourishment, peace and inspiration.
A four-mile sand spit is the defining function of a singular park on the Pacific coast at Manzanita, Oregon. Nehalem Bay State Park is a spot of many wonders, the place the sand spit separates the ocean on one aspect from the bay on the opposite. The bay has been shaped by the confluence of the gorgeous Nehalem River with the Pacific. For numerous years, it has been a favorite place of mine for strolling, photographing and, usually, considering the wonders of the pure world.
At low tide on the bay aspect, one can typically see bits of seagrass, and I’ve been fascinated by the swirling patterns created by the receding tides, forming one in every of a sort designs whereas seeming to freeze the grasses in movementāthat’s, till the tide is available in once more. For me, these āinventiveā grass patterns show that Nature actually is the consummate artist. The remainder of us merely copy.
