This is a really cool shot, I look forward to seeing how it's done (my guess is a quick exposure for the sun, then lens cap on for a while before removing for the star trails).
Love Cannon Beach. Very interesting sunset shot with the star streaks. The sunset itself is nicely composed between the two outcroppings and reflection in the water and sand. The star streaks adds another dimension to the image. Must tell in your notes how you achieved this. Best of luck in the voting.
