As we drove back up Highway 1 to the ranch at the end of New Year's Day the wind had picked up and the surface of the Pacific Ocean turned into something that resembled an upturned corrugated steel roofing sheet with wave after wave rolling endlessly against the shore.

Holiday weekend and the town is full to bursting with tourists. The local economy gets a much needed boost with Fish 'n' Chips on the menu for many.

More images from the day's shoot to follow.

Shot with the Cosina Ultron 40/2...

This is a nice little monster of a lens, I did not like the hood that much -- good stray light protection but really bad elbow shield, so I used the the Nikon HN-3 hood, it is a bit big, worse light shielding but way better protection :)

One of my sharpest lenses, and too sharp for some things even wide open!! ...this essentially makes it VERY critical to hit focus and very trivial not to!

The focal length is a bit odd, my head keeps framing the picture either as a 50mm or as a 35mm and then I get surprised when/if I look through the VF... yes, I frame in my head and not in the viewfinder :)

I seem to have become a fan of Cosina, three cheers for Mr. K!! ;)
