It is in the southern part of Oregon. It is called Thor's well. Amazing place to go, just be careful! no safety rails. Best at high tide.

Awesome, I have seen this place in person and it is wonderful to view, however your capture of it makes it look very different. Well Done!!!!!!

Oh what a gorgeous capture.
I had plans to go here but chicken-out at the last moment. Maybe, in the next trip... I'll try.
Beautiful.

Location
Thor's Well along the Oregon coast.Time
Midday shot, but it was so overcast that gave for perfect moody lighting.Lighting
I did wait around for over an hour for both lighting (cloudy, moodiness) and water flow to come out just right.Equipment
Nothing fancy just my Nikon D5500 and kit 18-55 lens with a ND filter to slow down shutter speed. And of course a tripod.Inspiration
I love shooting waterfalls and any sort of moving water with longer exposures. The smooth moody feel that comes out is my favorite look.Editing
Used Lightroom to bring highlights in the water and to darken up the rocks to bring out the contrast.In my camera bag
Camera,wide angle lens and a tripod.Feedback
Move around a lot and shoot from all directions to find best lighting. With long exposures try several shutter speeds to see what gives the water the motion you are looking for. Have a lot of patience and wait for that perfect shot!
