Point Reyes Images - #3

Birds in the Surf

Point Reyes Images is a series of shots from my recent exploration of one of the most remote and beautiful parts of the Pacific coast of California. Today's image is a hidden section of McClure's beach only accessible through a small crevice in a large promontory of boulders. I love the little sea birds flitting about so nonchalantly while the destructive force of the Pacific crashes all around them. The haze of the evening and the waning light give this image a surreal quality that makes me want to tarry. However, the wind was chilly, the heat was fleeting, and my wife had already begun to walk back towards the trail. It was time to leave this amazing place.

Thanks for joining me here on this journey through Point Reyes. There may be an iPhone Haiku Sunday on the horizon so stay tuned.

Here is a reminder of my upcoming instructional workshop for iPhone photography.

Point Reyes Images #2

Ripples and Reflections

Point Reyes Images is a series of shots from my recent exploration of one of the most remote and beautiful parts of the Pacific coast of California. Today's image is McClure's Beach just below Tomales Point (yesterday's image). I have a fondness for the patterns in the sand made by the surf and tides. This lovely dusk reflection of the sandy promontory in the background adds a lovely yin to the yang of ripples in the foreground, The surf in the distance seems so inviting but is alas quite chilly and inhospitable.

Tomorrow's Point Reyes image is a hidden beach and perhaps even more uninviting....

Point Reyes Images #1

Tomales Point above the Pacific

Point Reyes Images is a series of shots from my recent exploration of one of the most remote and beautiful parts of the Pacific coast of California. The allure of Point Reyes comes from its isolation, gorgeous waters, access to roadside oysters, and surprising to me, its wildlife.

I captured this first image of the Pacific on a typically easy hike along the trail of Tomales Point. Tomales Bay is the bit of inlet water where some of the finest oysters in America are harvested on a daily basis during the season. I enjoy very much the succession of coves each with their own patterns of sea break and craggy rocks.

Tomorrow's image  - a hidden Point Reyes beach.
