Doug Beezley Photography | Oregon Coast | The-Beaches-and-The-Sea

The Oregon coast represented the greatest photographic challenge I've yet encountered. The challenges were both skill-based - I went to learn how to use graduated neutral density filters - and environmental. Shooting on the beach took it's toll on my equipment (salt water, sand) and on me - seven straight days of sunrises and sunsets with many shoots ending after 10:00 pm only to get up at 3:30 am to get ready for a sunrise shoot. In the end, it was well worth it with images I could not have captured without instruction from Mark Rasmussen of LightChase Photography.
