  Simply stunning!! Love the contrast of the pink in the sky with the blue of the water and then offset by the natural color of the stone. Wonderful eye!!

  Beautiful lighting and I love the look of the water. I've never seen this formation in Santa Cruz. Lovely image, Carol! Hope sales of your coastal cards are doing well. With images like these, I would imagine they are. :-)

  Rob, Leanne, Donna, Marcie, Carolyn, Sherri, Patricia, Susan, Karen, Jeff, Brinn, Theresa, Mike, Stephen, Kathleen, Murry, and Adilson: I really appreciate all your wonderful responses, thank you very much!

Carolyn, not much to photograph in the parched Central Valley right about now, so I reserve some of my coastal/mountain images for times like this!

Patricia, this was taken at Natural Bridges State Beach at the north end of West Cliff Drive in Santa Cruz...the last remaining bridge to the shore collapsed some time ago, so this formation sits out from the beach in the water by itself. I took this at sunset with a warming filter and slow shutter speed to catch the water motion and fading light.
