Terrible Tilly Lighthouse

These shots were taken with my film camera at the viewpoint on the top of the Clatsop Loop trail in the Ecola State Park, Oregon. The lighthouse way out in the distance is the Tillamook Rock Lighthouse. It is nicknamed "Terrible Tilly" due to how difficult it was to get to it and maintain it, and its history of fatalities involving it. It was decommissioned in 1957 and is now part of the Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge. The first photo in this set was taken on the hike up to the viewpoint. I wanted to capture how small this forest made me feel, and how beautiful that feeling can be in this wide world.

From the top of the viewpoint, the lighthouse and the rock it stands on look so peaceful and resolute. It's hard to imagine it living up to it's nickname of Terrible Tilly.

Running with the theme of feeling small, I wanted to capture just how tiny this lighthouse actually is in the grand scheme of things. It's not a tiny building by any means, but from up here it looks like a speck in the vast pacific ocean.
