We spent an afternoon in San Francisco hiking to Land's End, a remote and deserted beach with fabulous views of the water. The hike itself was all down hill to reach the beach. The return hike was a b*tch! But the views were definitely worth it. The beach was littered with beautiful rocks and timbers, and as the tide was coming in, it battered and splashed the rocks. I'm so glad we took the time to make this hike -- it felt like a quiet and precious discovery so near to the city.

Beautiful photos. Looks like it was a rough day out there in the water. V
ReplyDeleteMary, looks like a great find a deserted beach in California. I'm sure that doesn't happen offen. The water looks rough but looks neat with the waves crashing on the rocks. Wonderful photos and mosaic. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteWhat amazing views and wonderful photos! We are in Florida now and I did something I've never done before! I had scheduled my Mosaic Monday before we left...but forgot about it! So I sat down and made my post for tonight....and lo and behold TWO Mosaic Mondays posted! heehee! I was embarrassed but I just had to laugh and keep going! Soooo...I'm having double the fun this week! HUGS! ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteLove waves crashing against the rocks!
ReplyDeleteSo very beautiful photos of these views!
ReplyDeleteMary, this is just the kind of place I like to explore. I can hear those crashing waves from here! Your collages are great; they give the overall view and the details of the scenery. Have a wonderful week.

I've never been to San Francisco, but if I ever go I'll remember this. Wonderful stormy photos!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful pictures! Water looks a bit cold! Have a wonderful week! Cathy
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images Mary...I love the beach and seeing a coast that is a little different from ours is always a bonus. My husband works in international shipping, so when I see a container ship in an artistic setting I love it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos Mary. Have a great week:)
ReplyDeleteCertainly worth the hike down and back up again. Lovely views.
ReplyDeleteIt looks very beauitful and rustic there, Mary! I would have had fun beach combing in that area for unusal rocks or sea glass.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Pat

What is going on here? These are magical, Mary. Did you use a tilt/shift action? J'adore.
ReplyDeleteHi Mary. Unfortunately I haven't been following blogs much lately but from what I gather you and your husband took a trip to San Fran. I hope you had a wonderful time! Getting away and photographing something totally different must have been invigorating. It shows in your images.
ReplyDeleteCan't believe you said Bitch.
Oh your photos have me aching for the sea. So very lovely. Kit
ReplyDeleteThe Man and I were in San Francisco recently. It's a fascinating place. Love your mosaic.
ReplyDeleteYour photos keep getting better and better! And since I'm somewhat of a newbie photographer, I appreciate any technical hints (like Photoshop actions you use). Good luck with your portrait business!
