Heceta Head Lighthouse

The lighthouse is located on the Oregon Coast between Yachats and Florence, Oregon. Off to the right, with the red roof is the old Lighthouse Keeper's Home, which since has been converted into a Bed and Breakfast.

For over 100 years, the Heceta Head Lighthouse has assisted ships and boats of all sizes to navigate the Pacific Ocean's treacherous currents. Heceta Head is named after Don Bruno de Heceta, a Spanish Explorer who in 1775 sailed up the West Coast.

Beach Treasures

The beaches on the Oregon Coast hold many treasures! The image below is not a sea shell or, an agate or, Japanese Float.

It is an art piece someone made out of various pieces of glass and planted on the beach in Yachats, Oregon. It is situated on the 804 Trail (part of the Oregon Coast Trail) that parallels the Pacific Ocean. A cool trail that is a beautiful two and a half mile round trip with rocky outcropping and waves that shoot fifty feet into the air when they hit the rocks.

Check out the swimming dolphin, in what looks to be an old fashioned candy jar and, the two wrist bands at the top. One with "Faith" written on it.

The image has been converted to a digital painting that I hope you enjoy. If you would like to explore this image, or others, please see links below!

Beach Tote Bags - Get Beachy!

Featuring some cool "Beachy Tote Bags"!  So why not get "Beachy"?

Since I live on the Oregon Coast in Newport, I have featured some of my favorite shots taken at various places on the coast.

All the photo art here is mine. You won't see these tote bags at the big box stores.

One of the most recognizable bridges in Oregon is the Yaquina Bay Bridge. It is art deco in style and was completed in 1936. It is still beautiful after all these years. It is featured on several of the totes here.

Besides Newport, Bandon Beach which is close to Coos Bay is one of my favorite places. In Bandon, the Coquille River Lighthouse, Horse Back Riding On The Beach, The Boardwalk and "After The Storm" is featured.

The Alsea Bay Bridge, which is in Waldport on the Coast, plus the "Sea Bench" in Yachats is featured.

Back to Newport, I featured the Yaquina Bay Lighthouse and the "Newport Belle" which is a floating bed and breakfast.

All the links under the illustrated tote bags lead to my artist website "Thom Zehrfeld Photography".

The totes are $23.00 to start for a small tote...$26 for a larger tote. So, get an original beachy thing today!

Gerdemann Botanical Preserve

There is a little known botanical garden in Yachats, Oregon that is just a jewel...The "Gerdemann Botanical Preserve".  It is a rain forest on three and a half acres and well worth your visit.

It is on private property but open for the public to enjoy.  And, as far as I can tell it is not a place that is real publicized or, even known about.


It is behind some art galleries on 101 in Yachats. And, I am betting they frown on folks parking on their lot who have no intention of visiting their galleries.

So, park somewhere else and walk into it from in back of the galleries.

First thing that caught our eyes were large leaf species rhododendrons.  And, yes, we missed the blooms by probably two weeks. However, the leaves themselves are impressive...like up to two feet long. There were very few other flowers in bloom at this time but it is a neat and unusual place and a great walk.
