Very nice. Is this recent? Are the flowers blooming already?

My most favorite surfing spot when I was a kid..except when the Orcas were migrating through. Black wetsuits were out.

I really like the hues in the photo, together with the fog, it adds to the mistery.

Northern California is stunning at times, and you captured it beautifully. Nice one.

Beautiful image.
Nice use of colour theory too!

This image reminds a little of Cape Point south of Cape Town, South Africa.
The vegetation reminds me of Fynbos and the rocky coastline is an absolute dead ringer.

So far as I know there's only been one documented case of a human ever being bitten by a wild orca.  Now, on the basis that small person in black wetsuit = seal, if great whites were around I'd be nervous.

Nice shot, BTW!

You are so right. I probably meant Great Whites, but it was a long time ago and I'm old, and...what were we talking about...I just know no one ever wore a black wetsuit because it made one look like a seal and seals were tasty treats.
