Highway 1 and 101 are one and the same here. A major artery for us SLO County peeps. Not a bad drive, though, huh?
Change your perspective and you change your reality.....
With the 24-70 on my 5d I finally feel as if I can breathe again. I know the 50 1.4 is a wonderful lens, but I've never felt comfortable with it....give me a wide angle and something different happens when I look through the camera.....to use a horrid pun - something just clicks :)
(I still want to go wider, but all things in good time).
Pismo Beach / Slo County / Calif / Central Coast
On the edge of the rocks in the heart of Pismo Beach, California. The high tides pound the "marble" cliffs, as they have for thousands of years- carving them out to a smooth texture you must feel to believe. The shapes of the nearby cliffs are unlike any other on the central coast.

Peron pensinsula Fence reaching into the waters of Shark Bay, WA.
Project Eden is a conservation project that aims to turn back the tide of extinction and ecological destruction in the Shark Bay World Heritage Area.
For this reason a 'Feral Proof Fence' has been constructed reaching from one end right across the Peron peninsula to the other.
Feral invader species, such as cats, foxes, rabbits and goats are being removed from the peninsula to give the indigenous animals a protected area to rebuild their numbers.

The Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) is a small pelican found in the Americas. It is one of the best known and most prominent birds found in the coastal areas of the southern and western United States.
This bird is readily distinguished from the American White Pelican by its non-white plumage, smaller size and its habit of diving for fish from the air
Pelicans are very gregarious birds; they live in flocks of both sexes throughout the year. They are exceptionally buoyant due to the internal air sacks beneath their skin and in their bones, and as graceful in the air as they are clumsy on land. In level flight, pelicans fly in groups, with their heads held back on their shoulders, the bills resting on their folded necks.
When forage, pelicans fly to a considerable height over a school of fish and then dive at a high speed into the water, often completely submerging itself below the surface as it quickly snaps up its prey before it can swim away. The pelican then comes back to the surface and spills the water out of its throat pouch that had been caught in the plunge and then throw back their head to swallow the prey. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_Pelican

They are the only species of pelican that is strictly marine in habitat, never found more than 20 miles out to sea or inland on fresh water. They prefer shallow inshore waters such as estuaries and bays.http://nationalzoo.si.edu/Animals/Birds/Facts/fact-brownpelican.cfm
