Cove and Rocky Beach, Big Sur Coastline

Cove and Rocky Beach
Cove and Rocky Beach. Big Sur Coast, California. July 21, 2008. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.

A cove and rocky beach near the outlet of a silt-filled stream along the Big Sur coastline of California. Photographed during my late July photography trip up the Big Sur coastline via Highway One, the Coast Highway.

The interesting and unusual coloration in the water of the cove seems to come from silt in a nearby stream and/or a shallow underwater sand bar. (I’m not certain which, but I’m inclined toward the former.)
