A red and clear Fresness lens is visible inside the top of a short lighthouse on the Oregon Coast. Trees and ocean and a couple of visitors are also seen.

@croyle We took a drive down the Oregon coast back in the film camera days. We stopped at the Yaquina Head lighthouse among others. I conquered my fear of heights, walked up those open iron steps, and snapped the shutter a few times. We went on our way, taking lots of pictures along that very beautiful coast. After a while, It dawned on me I was taking a lot of pictures but hadn't hit the end of the roll. I had not threaded the film correctly. We've never been back to try again.

    @dougfir Doh! Ah, those fun pre-digital film days... Remember trying to find something to take a photo of, just so you could finish up a roll and get it developed? And having to pay for every photo to be developed and printed? Good times, haha...I can still screw things up in the digital camera age, but it's harder to do now. :)Luckily, the Oregon Coast is still there and still beautiful.
