River's end

[Wicked Dark]

a couple of monochrome because the subjects seem to demand it after I got to messing with them in Lightroom. This is the Big Sur river where it meets the Pacific in Andrew Molera State Park. The beach is VERY popular and lots of people showed up right after I took these. So glad I got there early.

The middle hill, just to the right of the tallest one is where a lot of the flowered hillside photos were shot...the one with the moon was from there.

The guy in the 2nd one is a total bonus and really shows the scale well. It was a great spot. Next time we're in Big Sur I'll try to hit some redwood groves...there just wasn't time and the park that has them was blocked by road construction. bah.

VERY well done WD - :highfive:

Shot 2 is awesome! It's very close to 'slapping a frame' on it for me and this is definitely one of my all time faves from you. :thumbup:
