Pt. Lobos views

I don’t take the time – I don’t MAKE the time to stop in Point Lobos, like I used to when I lived in Palo Colorado Canyon. My focus has become more narrow – the south coast is my coast, now.

So, when Dan Danbom sends me some great shots he took there yesterday, and as this is a slow “news” day, I am posting them here so we can all enjoy them. Thanks again, Dan!

Dan hardly ever does B&W, which is my favorite, but here he was led to by the conditions, and he is correct. The strength of the composition here carries the shot.

  • O the b & w is like something from another planet.
    China Cove in color lookks refreshing. Swim time?!

  • It's interesting that you should say that, Kate — because living in Palo Colorado, I *do* stop in Point Lobos all the time, often to go for a little run around the perimeter.

  • Thanks for all your photos but particularly those of PL. My family once owned PL and China Cove has always been my favorite spot. Now I live in Mid-America and love seeing the seasons on the coast through your blog.
