But I think this view is different from the ones you usually see.<\/p>\n<p>We visited Heceta Head on a family vacation to the Oregon coast in August, 1997.  On the lighthouse tour the guide offered us a peek up through an access hatch into the interior of the lens assembly.  The hatch was small and people were waiting behind me for their turn to look, so I only had a chance for one shot, blindly poking the camera one handed up into the opening.  Call it a win for dumb luck.<\/p>\n<p>Taken with a Minolta XG-M and the 50mm f1.7 lens on Ektachrome 400, scanned on a Polaroid SprintScan 35+, then cleaned up, very slightly color corrected, and cropped in Photoshop 7.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-90","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-works-of-man"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/unexpectedimage.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/90","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/unexpectedimage.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/unexpectedimage.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/unexpectedimage.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/unexpectedimage.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=90"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/unexpectedimage.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/90\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1231,"href":"http:\/\/unexpectedimage.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/90\/revisions\/1231"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/unexpectedimage.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=90"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/unexpectedimage.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=90"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/unexpectedimage.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=90"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
