Up one level Roger's Pictures

A Day Trip to Monterey, California, January 18, 2010

We drove down to Monterey for a day - we arrived in the rain, so we started at the Aquarium.  The weather cleared up while we were there, so we drove around Pacific Grove, down 17-Mile Drive, and walked through Point Lobos State Natural Reserve, just south of Carmel.  The light was nice, until the showers moved in and the sun went down.

I learned a lot about photography and seeing pictures at Point Lobos, almost 40 years ago, with a Fujica ST701, a bunch of Plus-X film, and the darkroom at the Presidio of Monterey.  Ah, youth!
