Ocean Spray

The weather lately has, of course, been mostly terrible. It has been even worse at the beach, and as luck would have it, my family and I had to travel to the coast over Friday and Saturday. My daughter brought a friend along to alleviate the boredom of having to hang out with adults. We were trapped in doors for most of our visit, but on Saturday there was a glorious reprieve which the kids made the most of.

After having been trapped inside for such a long spell, the kid energy just erupted onto the beach and they had relentless fun. It was contagious fun too. Just being around them, camera in hand, I felt like a kid. Wind was whipping up a luscious whipped foam that looked just like the clouds in the sky. And turbulent weather added a bit of extra visual appeal.

This may not have much to do with wild Oregon, but my agents love these kind of images, as do kids magazines, and I try to get them whenever fun happens. It just happens to be blast for me as well. Lucky me!
