Olympic sea stacks

Rialto Beach at a minus tide, the stacks walked out to and photographed from the seaward side.

The stacks off Rialto Beach can be walked around at a minus tide for about forty minutes, which is enough time to set up on the wet sand on the far side and make two frames looking back at the shore. The water came back over my boots during the second one.

The print holds the mist between the stacks as three distinct planes, which is the whole reason for the large size.
