Point Lobos State Beach just south of Carmel, California is gorgeous! Doesn't matter which angle or direction you turn your camera--you're going to get a great picture! A "must visit" for nature photographers!Editing
I wanted to appear like a 'natural' trail, so I Photoshop'd out all the steel poles and cables that lined both sides of the path. Then like all my photos I turned up the clarity and saturation.In my camera bag
Back up batteries, extra SD cards, lens cleaner, clean rag.Feedback
Go out and explore. Whenever I'm near the coast, and I have extra time, I drive up and down the coast exploring parks and coast lines. Again, Point Lobos State Beach just south of Carmel, California is gorgeous! It's a haven for nature photographers. You can get great variety of nature shots with just a short walk.On this trip I shot a family of deer in the forest, hawks flying above cliffs, coastal landscapes, and more. You have to put yourself in great locations to get great shots!
