Moonstone Beach in Cambria, California

#ECK #Scape #LandscapePhotography #Photography #WestCoastKin #Cambria #MoonstoneBeach
This is shot from a low angle, emphasizing a white rock against dark brown sand and the exaggerated wideness of the inlet. Nearly all of the image is blue...the blue sky above, and the ocean inlet reflecting the blue sky. The components of the image are simple: white rock, dark brown sand and blue water/sky.

The pitting on these rocks on Moonstone Beach instantly caught my eye. A second offering for #BlueSkyArtShow, #stone theme.

Moonstone beach in Cambria, California

#ECK #MoonstoneBeach #Cambria #Driftwood #Scape #LandscapePhotography #WestCoastKin
A lot of driftwood is scattered along Moonstone Beach in Cambria, California. There is one long branch in the foreground that is upright at a diagonal angle, and another long branch lying on the dark brown sandy beach. More driftwood is in the distance, some of it is formed into sculptures. Just beyond are cliffs with Monterey Cypress trees and other vegetation. In the far distance are waves rolling in and more hills and cliffs. The sky is perfectly bright blue, and the morning sun is casting sunlight on the driftwood, contrasting it against the dark sand, while also creating long shadows.
