Boats docked at the Yaquina Bayfront in Newport Oregon. The bayfront is famous for its busy port entry filled with fishing, crabbing, tour boats, and sailing.

One of my favorite places to visit in Newport is the Yaquina Bayfront. I love the smell of the ocean and the fresh catch of the day. I browse the various shops to find hidden treasures. I usually eat at the Rogue and, I wander around the docks seeing where the different boats and ships are from. It is my home away from home.

"Yaquina Bay was explored by Lt. Theodore Talbot in 1948. He discovered 85 Yocona Indians living in the area. In 1855 the area was deemed a reservation because the government said the area was unfit for farming. Over 4,000 Indians from 20 tribes were sent there to live. In 1866 the land was opened to all people because of all the possibilities the area."

I am based is Northeastern California in the High Sierra Nevada Mountain Range. I specialize in nature, architecture and abstract. But, if a subject captures my attention, I capture it. For me, photography is how I remember the world through my eyes. It gives my peace. When I am photographing, I forget everything else around me and lose myself into the capturing of a memory. It’s just me and the subject. I am honored to be able to share my world with you. 'Savor the moment to last a lifetime.' Thank you for taking the time to view my profile and images. My images are taken from the heart. https://twitter.com/MellissaRay Note: The "Fine Art America" watermark does not show up on the final product.
