That sure gets us off to a great start, Buddy.  I have a couple from a few years back, but nothing to compare.  I'll try to find them, anyway, just to say I did.   :D

Great start to a beautiful challenge.  I don't know which I find more impressive: sunrise or sunset.  Living on the west coast, though, I see many more amazing sunsets than sunrises.  Nope.... I don't own a camera.   :-\

Make sure that your attached photos (those using the attached feature on our site) are not larger than 800 pixels on their longest side as the software won't resize them and we can't show photos larger than 800 pixels.  It's breaks the container of our software!  :(

If you use a URL for your photos, that's fine as the software resizes them.  :)

Well, now, Kathleen, our member, Nita, will be so happy to see that Coos Bay one.  She lives there and Jane Walker isn't all that far away either!

Gorgeous!!

Thank you.  Jane, I'm jealous!  I love it there by the coast.  This was taken at Sunset Bay State Park where we were camping.  I would LOVE to live there!  My eyes really like the humidity, but my asthma doesn't. :(

Thanks, Pat.  :)  I think I'm going to add some scripture to this one.

These are all so beautiful!! 

Thanks for the heads up, Pat, about the photo that Kathleen posted.  Our, Jane and I, home town!  Actually Jane lives a tad bit closer to the ocean than I do. :) 

I have a zillion (give or take a few) photos of that same area.  None are recent, though.

Some really awesome photos here.  It's going to be hard for us voters to decide. :)

Yes Pat. Aren't I lucky?

As I sit at my computer this is my view. Some time there are swans , geese and ducks and it's all just across the road.

The area of water up to where you see the sun's reflection in the water and far along to the right  is called the duck pond and is cordoned off between September and the end of January from kite surfer and dog walker and winkle picker  so that the migrant birds can feed enough for their next journey of thousands of miles in Feb.

Max A is on an evangelistic trip to a small Montana town.  He asked me to post these.
