Looking Down on Point Reyes Beach
This was taken on the road between the lighthouse parking and the lighthouse, right before you get to the employees’ residence. It is looking north along Point Reyes beach. Every time I’ve been here this scene had almost a painted look to it. I think it must be from the mist, making the whole scene slightly blurry, and from the somewhat abstract texture of the water and land.
These trees grow beside the road, and the constant wind has left them bent over and gnarled. This photo was taken in the late afternoon, when the trees were in the shade and provided a good outline to frame the shot.
