Evening descends on Rialto Beach, where the Pacific Ocean exhales its final light across the sand. The sun slips behind the sea stacks, and their dark silhouettes cut cleanly into the molten sky. Waves roll and withdraw in long, silken arcs, their motion slowed to grace by the lens. Each retreating tide draws threads of reflected gold and violet across the wet shore, the surface shimmering like glass in the fading day. The spires rise from the surf like ancient monuments—stone and tree entwined, their crowns shaped by decades of salt and wind.
Mist drifts through the gaps between rocks, softening edges and erasing distance until the line between sky and sea begins to dissolve. The air is thick with salt and the low hum of waves meeting stone. Every sound carries a kind of rhythm—the deep pulse of the ocean, the breath of the wind, the faint hiss of water smoothing over sand. The colors deepen by degrees: violet to indigo, gold to ember, until the light itself seems to hover just above the horizon, unwilling to leave.
This stretch of Washington’s wild coast feels both untamed and intimate. Each tide writes and erases the same story, the same mirrored glow, as day slips quietly into night. The stillness that follows feels infinite—a calm born not of silence, but of balance.
Tides of Light captures that fleeting moment when the ocean becomes sky, and reflection becomes memory. It’s the Pacific Northwest distilled into light and motion—a meeting of permanence and change, where the horizon itself feels alive and endlessly becoming.
