The wave action along the Hwy-1 coast can be amazing and mesmerizing to say the least especially on a windy day as huge waves crash against the rugged coastline. The sounds can be deafening as big waves crash against the rocks. This long exposure capture however presents a more mellow view of the actual scene.
Here is an image from a trip I took on Hwy 1, Central Coast, California. This was one of the rare days during the trip with a beautiful sunset gracing us at the end of the day. Interestingly, we are spending a couple of months in the Pismo Beach area so there will be a great opportunity to further explore the wonderfully rugged Hwy 1 coastline.
The dark gleaming sea stacks at Corona Del Mar present a bit of a challenge especially during sunset due to the extreme dynamic range the camera sensor needs to cover. The presence of some clouds at sunset helped somewhat this day.
