I just returned from a nine day trip to the Southern California Coast, specifically to areas of San Diego and Orange Counties. This was an unusual trip, in that I returned much more rested than usual. Thanks to a number of mornings of gray clouds known locally as June Gloom, I was able to wake up at 5:15 am, and realize I could go back to sleep for another couple hours.
Oddly enough, my favorite shot(s) from this trip were the last photos I took, and had nothing to do with my current book project. I’ll post those a bit later. But for now, I really liked this evening shot of the coast, where you are able to rent rustic cabins on the ‘original’ OC, an area famous from the 1940’s & 50’s.
You can also see more of my other LA & Orange County coast photos in my online web gallery.
Nice to get those illuminated cabins in the background Gary.
Beautiful capture Gary. Glad to hear you came back rested from your 9 days in SoCal. Hopefully the smoke from the recent fires helped your sunset photos rather than conceal them. Flying over the Sierras to Utah this past week it was amazing to see how much smoke filled the skies. I’ll be posting a photo to my blog of what I saw. My mother who lives in LA is apparently having increased asthma problems as a result. Crazy times in California and hopefully they’re not impacting your project. As to your photographs that were not related to your project… I’m looking forward to seeing them.
Hey Gary,
Looking forward to seeing more of your images from you travels!
You know I have secretly wished for rain on occasion so that I could sleep in guilt free and get caught up on my sleep!
