Tide pool at sunset along the lost coast

This image was photographed in a tidal pool during sunset in northern California’s Lost Coast. This image was a challenge to create, but the incredible light made it easier than usual. For this image I rolled up the legs of m pants and stood in the center of this tidal pool.  I set up my tripod as low to the waters surface as I could. To get the soft still look of the water in the tidal pool I set my exposure to 6 seconds to even things out. 

This was a great afternoon, we spent the day near an old lighthouse in Shelter Cove relaxing and reading.  We scouted out a few good spots to head back to when the evening light set in. I am glad that the tides, and the weather were on our side this evening. 

We left the Shelter Cove area the other day. We are now continuing south through California. This morning we arrived in Petaluma California. Marina and I had a great time this morning at the Twit Brickhouse watching the Apple announcement. Twit is a technology focused podcast network that I have been a fan of for nearly a decade. Glad that we had the chance to watch the apple event and watch the coverage and analysis
