A huge wave at Cape Disappointment looks as if it is spreading wings and about to leap into the air like a bird. The top of the lighthouse can just be seen through a gap in the spray.

About the map.
Sometimes I don’t geo-tag images because it isn’t environmentally a good idea. We photographers have a tendency to find a good spot and ruin it because so many people visit. These maps are intended to give you a general idea of the location.
