About this image
Heceta Head Light is a lighthouse on the Oregon Coast between Florence and Yachats. It is located at Heceta Head Lighthouse State Scenic Viewpoint, a state park, midway up a 205-foot tall headland. Built in 1894, the 56-foot lighthouse shines a beam visible for 21 nautical miles, making it the strongest light on the Oregon Coast.
Heceta Head is named after the Spanish explorer Bruno de Heceta, who explored the Pacific Northwest during the late 18th century. Before him, Heceta Head was a spot of frequent fishing and hunting by the American Indian tribes that populated the area. Heceta Head is part of the Siuslaw Indians' traditional lands. They hunted sea lions in the area and gathered sea bird eggs from the offshore rocks. It was also the site of a legend — the Animal People built a great stone wall, which is now the cliffs, and tricked the Grizzly Bear brothers to their deaths there.

What my clients say
Received canvas in a very timely manner and packaged with care. I would highly recommend! Now that my husband opened the canvas, he was shocked. We've been trying to capture that "shot" for years. It is proudly displayed in our living room for everyone to see.
Beautiful picture!
We selected a photo of Adams that we felt captured the beauty of the Chicago downtown river walk area and asked him to apply a brushed filter in a large format of approximately 70” x 50”. It was printed on a large canvas and box framed . It tuned out FABULOUS! Wish I could attach a photo of it hanging in our foyer so you could appreciate the beauty we are enjoying! Overall experience was wonderful and the artist is a pleasure to work with. If I could give 10 stars I would.
