California

Watching for Waves

A learning California surfer waits somewhat impatiently for a wave to come on a particularly bad day for waves.

A Busy Day at the Beach

Everyone was enjoying the surf at Crystal Cove State Park.

Alcatraz

The famous island, once naval fort, once federal penitentiary, now national park on prime San Francisco Bay real estate is offset by a flight of birds all around.

Calm Seas

An old sailing ship comes into port while birds fly escort.

Golden Gate

The Golden Gate Bridge on a dark, misty morning.

Palms Sunset

This classic California sunset had some very nice silhouetting offset by the colors in the sky.

Solvang

An iconic windmill in the small Danish village of Solvang, CA.

Wave

Winds at Crystal Cove brought in some strong waves that were breaking just offshore.

Splash Rock

The rocky shores at the edge of the Crystal Cove beach combined with the waves to create some fantastic salt sprays.
