I love these furious waves! Is there agate to be found on this beach? Have you seen Alan Knox's amazing agate picture? Take a look - it's lovely!

You're right -- Alan's agate photo is indeed lovely. Thanks for sending me over.

Before I found this place I asked some local fishermen where I could find some rocks -- and they directed me to Agate Beach and suggested I go at low tide for the best rocks. After I left them it dawned on me they thought I wanted rocks I could put in my pocket! It was these rocky cliffs and crashing waves I wanted. I meant to visit here briefly and move on up the coast -- instead I stayed here 3 days. None of my photos do justice to the elemental energy of this place. (Guess I'll just have to go back.)

I love the dark energy of this shot. The stark black coastline fending off the crashing green fury of the waves, and the lonely lighthouse bearing silent witness... it's a powerful image. Yellow star for this one.
