Taken at Sunset Cliffs, San Diego, California, where the Pacific Ocean has been gradually chewing away at these magnificent rocks, for a long time.
Thanks for looking!

“It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer.
You need less imagination to be a painter
because you can invent things.
But in photography everything is so ordinary;
it takes a lot of looking
before you learn to see the extraordinary.”

Here is another shot from the Thanks giving day weekend. This shot was made at the sunset cliffs location just after sunset. We got into one of those gridlocks that socal is famous for and only reached this location just after sunset. So I had little time to hunt for good foreground interests and get myself familiar with the location, but the incredible cloud formation and light more than made up for it. Thanks for visiting.
The tremendous power of these waves were amazing to watch. Water flows under and through a rock shelf arch while also spilling over it.

Thanks a lot for your views, comments and favs :-)
Sometimes you need to get outside by yourself. Going by yourself without anybody to converse with forces us to focus on our own thoughts or lack there of...and sometimes you just don't have anybody to rally with. Don't let that keep you inside!
San Diego’s Sunset Cliffs is definitely a spot where the locals go to hang out and watch the sun go down. This was the most crowded spot I visited each evening when trying to capture a California sunset.
Took this shot while on a jog along the bluffs the other evening. It is a 6 vertical image panoramic stitched in Lightroom. The cropped image is 60 megapixels.
One of the beautiful things about long exposure photography of water is it smooths out the waves into this beautiful, misty and blue scene.
The cliffs, however, tell a different story. Their erosion is significant, and this precipice is unstable at best, but the view is astounding. The waves crashing onto the rocks and the gulls make for a calming sound, despite the destructive force.
When I moved back to the East Coast for a few years after buying a home and living in San Diego for three years, people asked if I was certain I wanted to move back here.
Sure, it's expensive, but no more than the DC suburbs were. Sure, its politics are a bit interesting, and again, living around DC was similar. But, on March 30th, when I was forced to throw on jeans and a lightweight jacket so I could endure the sunset breezes on the coast at 65°F, I thought, "yeah, maybe they were right to question me - not."
