Mae, I hadn't come across this image of yours before now. I love the tones and the textures. Wonderful! That patch of turquoise in the middle is a delight.

very nice shot. i'm trying to place this location. there's a great spot along pch near the navy base, i think it's Mugu or something. there's a large mount of rock between the highway and the ocean. your shot looks like it was taken there down in the little cove.
super shot.
