30 seconds at Headland Cove Photograph

Point Lobos is a little piece of heaven just south of Carmel, California. My wife and I make an annual sojourn to Monterey, specifically the lovely colony of Pacific Grove, and for many years and many reasons had not visited Point Lobos. This year the excuses were gone, the weather was perfect, the park was open, and crowds were missing. Headland Cove is one of the many unique features of the park. The cove is surrounded by the steep volcanic rock where the water sneaks up to the black beach sand in long,​ languid waves. I'm standing on a small outcrop over the cove photographing the waves crashing over the rocks with typical short shutter speed and not being impressed with the results. I start trying different techniques and eventually realize how long the waves stretch on their journey to the beach expelling white froth in long lines cascading onto the shore. Increasing the exposure to capture the smooth motion of the rolling tide revealed this calming image of the crashing surf.
