Carmen..wish you were here for the pasta..we had plenty...LOVE LOVE LOVE your stormy pictures....
beautiful photography, dear one
wish i was up your way..I LOVE being in S.F. in a storm...and that glass of wine you're holding looks delightful...especially tonight..don't mind if I do.......
These photos are very evocative. I can hear the waves while I am looking at them. My favorite is the big rock with the fog and surf at it's base. Excellent! Thank you for sharing. What are your temps like out there? Kat
MaxiVelasco - thank you for your kind words. I do enjoy photography. Sometimes, good shots just happen along! I was pretty pleased with these. Hugs back to you.
Poetic Shutterbug - this area of Pacifica, by Rockaway Beach is always good for shots in stormy weather, partly because of the way the surf comes in and the rocks. I always love going there.
sm - thank you...I love this area near me.
My Farmhouse Kitchen - that wine photo was in Chops Restaurant on the Brilliance of the Seas - we were treated to dinner there by the F & B Mgr who went to Cal Poly, Pomona but, of course, is very familiar with SLO.
Margie - whenever you can come out, we'll do the big tour - from the beach at Land's End near Jo's house to this beach ( though the waves aren't like this unless it's stormy ) to beautiful Half Moon Bay - even down to Monterey and Carmel!
lakeviewer - Pacifica is usually nicer in the winter months - but, you're right, some- times you cannot see your hand in front of you.
A couple of apartment buildings in Pacifica are about to go down. They tried to shore them up with boulders but it just isn't working.
Kat_RN - that area, about five miles from my house is one of my favorite spots. I like the rock photo, too. Weather wise, our temps don't get too high or too low. At night, it's down about 50, up about 60, right now during the day...but 20 miles away it can get 10 - 15 degrees hotter or colder.
Priyanka Bhowmick - this is only a few miles from where I live - my two younger sons went to high school about two miles from these waves, up a hill and down into a valley. When I would drive them, I always loved coming back down the hill, with the whole Pacific below me.
betchai - I think that rock is my favorite photo as well...that area is one of my favorite spots when I just need to get away and unwind!
Hello from the other side of the Pacific. I really enjoyed looking at these photos - the incredible power of the ocean. You have a great eye for capturing shots at just the right moment!
Janiss - glad you like the pictures. Usually our Pacific Ocean is not so wild!
rainfield61 - you know, sometimes, crazy kids get out there and try to surf when there are storms like this. Thankfully, this time people listened to the advisories.
Sheila - I was so happy with these photos... sometimes, they are not so good!
sony holland - our Pacific is supposed to be peaceful, isn't it? I am so excited that this time, next week, I'll be listening to my favorite of all jazz singers!!!!
Vaggelis - thank you - I'm happy you liked my pictures!
Mickle in NZ - I wish I were on your size of the Pacific...yes the ocean can be very ferocious, at times! Much love to you and Zebby.
I think that these photos are beautiful. Beautiful capturing of light and that rock with the misty vapors...that is strong and gives off a powerful image and feeling...
C - this area of Pacifica is a favorite of mine, regardless of the weather. It is a place that always gives me a sense of peace.
Ayie - the weather is continuing...too long, I think!
ruma2008 - ooooh, so cold where you are, Ruma. Glad you liked my photos - a real honor from a supreme photographer like you. I've enjoyed reading about your island since I was really only a little familiar with Honshu.
Wow Carmen! You do take very lovely photos. I wish I have that talent like you have.
ReplyDeleteThe waves look scary and yet, you are able to capture perfect wave shots. You are such a talented person.
Have a great day Carmen and I've added you in blogroll. Hugs!
Wow, Carmen, dramatic and awesome shots. These really capture the wet n wild and weird storms we've been having. Absolutely gorgeous.

Absolutely awesome! I'd love to see that in person.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures. At least, Pacifica was not foggy this time. We always drive by when it's too foggy to see the ocean.
ReplyDeleteThey are worried about mud slides in Southern Cal.
Beautiful photos, Carmen..A series of clouds and waves are gorgeous to see!

ReplyDelete(The best Sparkle could come up with was a bunch of photos of boxes.)
Oh No!!!!!!

Your photos are just stunning!
ReplyDeleteAwesome photos, Miss Carmen. That Pacific can be a bit on the daunting side, eh! Thank you for sharing.

ReplyDeleteThe past storm really made me cold during those days =(
ReplyDeleteIt is dreamlike wonderful scenery.
