Dangerous Cliffs
I was walking on the cliff to the right one day last month when a security guard came up to kick me off the site. People used to camp up there and now they have security guards watching the spot. He told me someone had died after falling off a cliff. "This cliff?" I asked. "One of them," He said. I had read about the death and wondered where he fell from. I guess it doesn't matter. They're all dangerous.
I drove up here last month intending to shoot north of the old pier, but stopped when I saw the trail down to this spot. I'd never been down here. Not sure why not, maybe it just looked uninviting or something. I went down and loved it so much I basically camped here for a week to shoot some differing conditions. This was a shot from a day with calm surf but some nice color.
