Some more work needed on this one but this is the best I could do this evening

At a 6.7 ft. tide, one of the higher tides of the year, the bay (Morro Bay) floods back up Los Osos Creek and to the Turri Ponds. I'm not sure why that bright light stayed still there for a while (it may have been on the bear at the entrance to Los Osos), but I'll take it.
Los Osos, Morro Bay, California
Literal stop-and-go traffic on the Sunday night of the Labor Day weekend as people returned from the beach and Morro Rock. The small town was crowded while inland temperatures soared, Morro Bay temps were balmy, and for some, the last hurrah of summer.
Morro Bay, California
The Great Blue Heron in the corner was serendipitous, but I'll take it. After a few minutes the heron flew.

I consider this a work-in-progress as I hope to return to this spot or nearby when the coastal fog is not so thick. (The light in the distant sky is result of lights of the town of Morro Bay reflecting off the fog.)
Just after a 6.5 ft. tide, one of the higher tides of the year, and the bay (Morro Bay) had flooded back up Los Osos Creek and to the Turri Ponds. Serendipity is a crazy thing. When I drove up the road there were two sheriff's cars and several officers questioning someone at their car at the intersection of South Bay and Turri Rd. When I had finished and drove back by, there was a third sheriff car, and outside the vehicle in question there were numerous bags. A drug bust? Too bad for someone, but it brought some extra lights into my photo on an evening with a rather subdued sky during sunset.

I had made another photo of this scene last month:
This is one of my favorite mural on Commercial Drive.
Just a repost of an archive picture.
Wish you a great Monday and week coming!
That is a cold morning and you need a double dose of smoke and coffee to keep one awake and filled with energy.
This is another one of my favorite murals in Commercial Drive neighborhood.
Have a great Thursday!

The thin light line at lower center was a car going up the drive to the Morro Bay Museum of Natural History. Morro Bay Golf Course is at right.

Here I tried a higher perspective and it makes a difference, as do the wider angle, the random traffic happenstance and nuances of headlight beam. I thought there might be a more conspicuous difference in the trees after this past winter's storms felled several trees. There are two leaning trees at far left, but I don't know if their angle predates this past winter. (This photo is a combination of several exposures to get the traffic lights and I have left the series of the same star as it appears to move through the exposures.)
This photo won first place in the Landscape/Seascape category of the (San Luis Obispo) New Times photo contest this past week.
