The Needles, Haystack Rock-Oregon [Contest Finalists September 2008]
Uploaded: September 15, 2008 07:54:07
A different look at the Needles rock formation located at Haystack Rock, Cannon Beach, Oregon. This was one of those days, hard rain then sunshine. I would try to take pictures in the sunshine but was wet before I was finished. It was just starting to rain again when I took this photo....Denny
