    Wow, these are some beautiful shots! My favorites are 1, 4, and 7.
    I think the last shot could use a little highlight recovery as the sky is a bit blown out.

    Awesome! Looks like you had some great light on the beach. I haven't shot Rialto at sunset (I've shot Second and Ruby plenty of times), I'll have to give it a try, really like those sea stacks. 3, 5, and 7 are my favorites of this set but they're all good.

    Shoot in RAW because memory is cheap but memories are priceless.

    Nice series. I'm really liking 7. Its a wonderful compo but then you add in a great relection, excellent colors and the "Blue Hour" and you really have something special.

    Brings Back Memories!
    Visited almost the same locations about 4 weeks ago. It rained just about every day and was in the low 50s. I spent a bit of time in the Hoh, which is an amazing primeval place. And Second Beach is stunning too.

    One of the more interesting aspects of my trip was my four days sleeping in Forks/La Push, WA (camping on First Beach). Those Twilight book fans are quite obsessed. :D

    Nice shots and thanks for sharing them!

    Thank you everyone! it was my first time shooting the PNW and i have to admit it was nice... we had some great weather too... it was in the 90's 4 of the 5 days we were there and the winds were from the east so it kept the clouds away
