I shot this along Big Sur - sheer cliffs meeting an energetic blue sea. The late sun reveals warm, earthy textures and a quiet, expansive horizon. If you could hang this on one wall, where would it go — living room, office, or bedroom?

California coast road trips change everything. Big Sur cliffs rewrite ideas of ocean edges.

¿Sabían que en la región de Big Sur, California, existe una playa cuya arena presenta tonalidades púrpuras y violetas debido a la erosión de minerales específicos en los acantilados circundantes?

Este fenómeno ocurre en Pfeiffer Beach, donde los depósitos de granate de manganeso se desprenden de las formaciones rocosas superiores y son arrastrados hacia la costa por la lluvia y el viento. La concentración de estos cristales minerales, al mezclarse con los granos de arena convencionales, crea vetas de color amatista que son particularmente visibles después de tormentas invernales o durante la marea baja.

Aunque la mayor parte de las playas del mundo están compuestas por cuarzo, la geología particular de esta sección de la costa californiana permite la acumulación de estos sedimentos densos. El contraste visual se intensifica con la humedad del agua marina, lo que ha convertido a este sitio en un punto de interés para el estudio de la sedimentología local y la observación de la dinámica costera en el Pacífico.

I photographed Big Sur where mist threads the trees and turquoise water meets jagged rock.

Tell me — living room, office, or bedroom? It makes a quiet centerpiece.

I took this Bixby Bridge shot at golden hour — the arch presents a quiet contrast to the rugged cliffs and restless Pacific.

I photographed Coastal Mist — Big Sur California Wall Art Print to present rugged cliffs dissolving into soft fog. Light and shadow reveal the textured meeting of forest and turquoise sea; the image conveys quiet strength and calm.

Cruising along iconic Highway 1 from Monterey through Big Sur is one of the best 💗📸🙂

The update to #BigSur worked out well. #Openpatcher got me up to Sequoia, but oh boy is it chugging.

So I am going to downgrade to my third favorite #MacOS and my favorite “modern” MacOS: #Monterey
#Mavericks is installed. Now I am jumping the gun to install #BigSur. Then with #openpatcher legacy I will move to #Sequoia 😈
