Point Reyes Headlands

Posted on 24 July 2008

Point Reyes Headlands with coastal haze, foreground cove, and Drakes Bay.

I made this photograph in incredibly windy conditions. (I can hear other Point Reyes regulars saying, “duh!” at this point…) It was the kind of afternoon when no tripod is sturdy enough to really hold the camera still – so I waited and shot during relative lulls in the gale. If you look closely at the lower right corner you can see sea lions hauled out on the beach.
