The Coquille River Lighthouse is built upon a solid Rackliff Rock protrusion that existed long before the jetty was built around it. Prior to the jetty there was an elevated walkway from the nearby lightkeepers house to the lighthouse itself. To get this shot I’m standing on the very tip of the rock with the water sloshing around my feet as the tide is coming in.
