Favorite Images from 2023: #9 Oceanside

As I've done for several years I like to look back on the previous year's work and share my 12 "best" images - although the word best is subjective. So, let's say that these are my 12 favorite images of 2023. I'll be sharing them one at a time.

 

Oceanside

The northern California coast is somewhere I had not had the good fortune to visit much until recently. I was enchanted by the beautiful scenery. The rocky coast, crashing waves, and misty mornings (and so much more) presented spectacular sights, sounds, and smells. On this morning we enjoyed a hike along the shoreline, observing the seagulls and crashing waves. The waves were hypnotically soothing. With every crash against the shoreline they seemed to say, "Look at me ... listen to me ... and forget your troubles." Across a small bay this tree came into view as we explored. It was backlit in the morning Sun, and the mist created by the crashing waves filled the space around the trees.
