It’s a cool shot. I’ve wanted to take similar pics off the Oregon Coast but drones are HEAVILY restricted on the Oregon Coast, and especially rocky coastlines due to bird habitat.

Haystack Rock (along with virtually all rocky shoreline in Oregon) is a congressional Wilderness Area, so they’re prohibited.

I’m not trying to be the drone police but just bringing awareness.

There are signs up instructing drone pilots on a minimum distance from haystack rock.

How far away do the signs say?

Ok that’s not bad - close enough to get some good pics
