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. #696326
