Seaside, Oregon: Not Another Travel Guide

By Bob Campbell

This is Not Another Travel Guide: Seaside, OR at its finest. Sixty-five print-quality images composed over three short days on the Oregon Coast at the end of November. Rain and bad weather don’t deter our intrepid photographer as he marches onward to get the finger-numbing shot.

Explore just a couple isolated regions on the beach in detail to see what you're missing; then a quick squirt up and down the main drag, before returning to the sea and sand.

Wind and waves, rain and sun - everything you'd expect from the beach except the seagull poop.
Includes an image index to help you revisit your visual-fix for those needing a shortcut to inner quietude.

The short of it: over-educated, unemployed, and annoying with a camera. Quite possibly a dangerous combination.The long of it:I've been snapping pictures for over a quarter-of-a-century on equipment ranging from a Pentax k1000 to Canon SX700hs - but nothing fancier. In fact, after they retired my Kodachrome 64 film, I hung up the 'real cameras' and settled for "digital pocket snappers." It seems ninety percent of the challenge to taking pictures is to remember your camera (would seem obvious, wouldn't it? But look around at the folks with large, fancy cameras - no wonder they claim the phone-based lens will be the death of real photography). So I do my part and pack it almost everywhere.I was a latecomer to photography, though, so I had time to grow up in many different parts of the country with my formative stage in the South, but junior high and onward in the Pacific Northwest. The last set of initials after my name tacked on by the Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine - making the 'highest degree attained' line of the survey read Doctor of Veterinary Medicine.I still live in the state of Washington with my lovely wife of over two decades who continues to be an invaluable accomplice. For any hazard I manage to avoid, our son does his best to ensure we'll see an early grave.Having spent a little time teaching, I've grown to miss a captive audience to inflict my photography upon, so thank you Smashwords for providing me a forum for dispersing my imagery pain to be loosed upon the world.
