This park is a fantastic location, with magnificent views. I spent a couple of hours there, and could have easily come back at sunset for a lot longer except I had a schedule to keep.
It's a little frustrating to try and show the actual size of those rock and waves. Here's shot where I zoomed in to one area of the picture above. Notice how tiny the people are... The size of those rocks just isn't obvious in a photo.
To find this image in the larger shot, follow the point of land on the left side of the frame, roughly half way down the image. You see the point, with three large rocks clustered close by. That's where the detail shot is from.
Great shot on your southern exposure, toward Cannon Beach. These are the kind of shots they like to use to draw tourists. It looks so warm, sunny and peaceful. There is a narrow window of days like that on the Oregon Coast.
Just for fun, I went into photoshop, and overlaid your image on mine. Looks like we shot from nearly the same location. Of course with a stitched panorama, yours will have more resolution.
Your panorama drops neatly onto my second shot, we cropped nearly the same left and right, though obviously not vertically. There is one difference though, your shot has the 3 large rocks on the right side showing up twice, probably due to the stitching. I'm certain mine is the correct version, since that shot is a single exposure.
Here's a simulated panorama version, cropped down from the second image. Looks quite different that way...
Bob,
yeah, it sure does look similar! and you're right about the "extra" rocks... i have corrected that in the original (restitched) since i posted that shot the first time, so that my prints show the correct rock formations.
This is one of my absolute favorite places to visit and photograph. I love to shoot from above and down on Indian Beach. You have a very nice photo here.
