Those tiny humans climbing up those big rocks really gives a good perspective.

Smith Rock has much to offer besides the climbers, who are a show unto themselves

It's 20 minutes north of Redmond, maybe 40 minutes north of Bend

Very good shots.

Thanks for the kind words, Paul. Smith Rock is a wonderful place to shoot pictures. You can occupy yourself all day long, from a variety of angles and settings, and always have something fresh in the lens. What's not to like about that?
