PictureCorrect.com: Interesting Photo of the Day: Oregon Sea Stacks

Oregon’s rugged coastline is known for its rocky outcrops and islands — particularly sea stacks. In fact, it’s home to many notable formations, such as Haystack Rock and Twin Rocks. In this scenic photograph taken by Erik Lee, you can spot — not one, two, or three — but dozens.

Plus, an arched stack that very much resembles the twins. For this shoot, Erik even managed to crop himself in wearing a fall-inspired pumpkin-toned rain jacket.

For those wondering what a sea stack is, it’s a column of eroded rock that remains standing in the ocean. In each stack, you can clearly study the exposed striated rock layers from top to bottom.

The Oregon coast is full of amazing sea stacks; this scene is one of my favorites. If you look closely the furthest sea stack even has an arch in it. I chose to shoot at sunrise so that the rocks are lit.

Erik packed his Nikon Z7 and 24-200mm lens and shot at 59mm for this shoot. It appears he also used a tripod to keep the camera steady and in position while he was away. To capture himself and the furthest formations in detail, he created a composite image.

The first image was taken with a longer shutter speed to capture the silky movement of the water. Whereas the second image — with Erik in it — was taken with a shorter shutter speed. Naturally! He would have looked a bit of a blur or cramped up trying to stand still for so long!
