The Edge of Night---- Where the land meets the sea and night meets the day, the lighthouse beams out to greet the darkness. This lighthouse projects from Cape Blanco on the Oregon Coast. #oregoncoast #bestoforegoncoast #traveloregon #oregon #exploregon #oregonexplored #youroregon #oregonnw #exploreoregon #bestoforegon #pacificocean #pacificnorthwest #upperleftusa #northwestisbest #cascadiaexplored #pdx #1859oregon #coastexplorer #nwadventurepp #NWAPP #jj_oregon #longexpo_addiction #landscape_captures #awesomeearth #starrynight #longexposure #astro_photography_ #ic_longexpo #fs_longexpo

While I often enjoy getting as far from city lights as possible to capture the night sky, city lights can be almost as magical. Enjoying this classic view in Bend Oregon of the footbridge over the Deschutes River in the Old Mill Section of town. #youroregon #nightsky #nightscape #nightscaper #nightphotography #nightscapes #longexpo_addiction; #ic_longexpo #fs_longexpo #nightskape #oregonexplored #traveloregon #portlandnw #exploreoregon #exploregon #oregonnw #jj_oregon #thebestofbend #thisisbend #backyardbend #onlyinoregon #oregon_of_usa #BendLife #1859oregon #outinoregon #naturaloregon #sourceweekly #cascadejournal #ItsYourOregon

TRI-LIGHT VIEW---- Sometimes we get a little extra lighting help with our photos. I knew I'd have about a 50 percent moon to front light the scene while photographing the lights of the Milky Way. Then a commercial fishing both returning the Port Orford, Oregon harbor turned on its bright lights. The side lighting was an unexpected addition to the scene which suddenly became greatly illuminated under the night sky. #nightsky #astrophotography #stars #nightscape #nightskape #astrophoto #starrynight #nightscaper #ig_astrophotography #stargazing #nightphotography #longexposure #galaxy #milkywaygalaxy #longexpo #nightscapes #starrysky #thestars #milkyway #starphotography #starscape #astro_photography_ #ic_longexpo #fs_longexpo #oregoncoast #bestoforegoncoast #coastexplorer #oregonnw #backyardbend #jj_oregon
