Description
This is the Yaquina Head Lighthouse near Newport, Oregon.
We didn't get to tour this one, which is a shame. I hear it has a marble floor. It will give us something to look forward to on our next trip to the Oregon Coast! :)
A couple of weeks ago Chip posted a photograph of a lighthouse in Evanston, Illinois, which he used to see when he visited his friend LaTonya in that town, and called it Tara's Lighthouse. Both lighthouses were built in 1873, and are quite similar in their styling. At the time, I promised Chip a photo of the one out here.
So this is for Chip and his friend LaTonya (who I have yet to meet but like already)! LaTonya now lives about 100 miles from this lighthouse. It's a fun coincidence!
The Yaquina Head Light is still active.

Beautiful capture..love this area!!
This is a great shot of this lighthouse, Tara. I'm sure Chip will enjoy it.
Excellent image! Love this POV. 10+
What a beautiful lighthouse that is, Tara. Wonderfully captured. I know Chip will be thrilled.
So beautiful that for a moment I felt it would be good to live there..but the feeling passed.
I love the misty diffused glow - perfect for a lighthouse! Very well done, Clive
Great capture of a lovely looking lighthouse!!
I have an original painting of a lighthouse very similar to this on the Labrador coast, about 20 km from where we lived. Gorgeous photograph, and thanks for the warm memories (of a very cold place...)
Excellent composition with those herbs !
Very beautiful Tara, I think you should also try it in mono.
Beautiful picture!!
Very beautiful capture! :)
excellent work
i think colour suits this beautifully as does the interesting foreground
What a great shot; love that you got the field at a the foreground. It just adds to the overall beauty of the foto!!
I think I photographed this lighthouse, but from another bluff so it was a small part of the image. I love the soft lighting and the flowers in front. Very beautiful...
I recall this being a gray day...you've done a remarkable job coaxing the light in this image...and the overall composition and softness really makes this photo extraordinary. Marble floor...ok, when are we going back?
Great shot a real lighthouse looking lighthouse If that makes sense.
Fabulous image. I love the POV and colors
A beautiful scene. It invites you in. The composition is spot on.
A beautiful lighthouse, and a magnificent photo, Tara! This is what I visualize when I hear or read the word 'lighthouse.' Just beautiful!
Beautiful shot have you been to the tide pool below it.
Fantastic capture, Tara
Oh. My. Oh. This is drool-worthy! So very incredibly lovely with your signature postwork style...I love it!
Awesome capture of this beautiful lighthouse!!

Very beautiful lighthouse Tara with a astonishing mood! Congratulations and good day!
makes my eyes stare wonderful capture warm hugs, Linda Kaye
With this, you have also captured my favorite lighthouse, next to Cape Spear, Newfoundland, but only because I have a long connection with the Cape Spear light. I do, however, have stationery with Yaquina Head printed on it. I use it only for very special letters, letters that I do not write very often. I must bring that paper out and use it, Newport has been a favorite place for me for many years.
Fantastic place, excellent shot!
