Devil Lake State Park Oregon USA

Our next stop on this wonderful vacation was at my Uncle John & Aunt Joanna's house in Lincoln City, Oregon. Not only did we have a great family reunion with them, it was in a lovely place to see the wonders of the Oregon coast. It is centrally located on the coast, so we were able to take day trips to the North & South then still return to their home at night. I just love my family!!!

This image is from the shoreline of Devil's Lake State Park looking to the East. It was a foggy overcast morning when I took this image. So calm & peaceful. My Uncle & Aunt have a view of this dock from their balcony, if you look really close in the top right of the image you can see his house in the trees.

When shooting this image, I decided that a panorama would be the best way to capture this scene. I also love taking HDR shots, so I took 5 bracketed shots for the HDR part and 3 shots for the panorama part. Then when I got home, I processed the HDR of 5 shots each in Photomatix first, then stitched the 3 images together in Adobe Photoshop CS5. Finally, I took the image back to Adobe Lightroom 3 to enhance it.

I hope you enjoy this image as much as I do!
