This photo features an area of North Beach, part of Drakes Beach on the west coast of the Point Reyes National Seashore, a peninsula of over 71,000 acres, in California, northwest of San Francisco. Drakes beach gets its name from Sir Francis Drake, a sea captain/privateer/pirate in the employ of Queen Elizabeth I. Rumor - myth - has it that he supposedly made landfall here for ship repairs while exploring the coast between 1577 and 1580. Shortly after Drake's visit the Spanish explorer Sebastian Vizcaino named the cliffs on the western edge, "la punta de los Reyes," meaning "the point of kings, now called just "Point Reyes." The peninsula is a combination of prairies, grasslands, forests, streams, wetlands, marshes, swamps, long beaches and dairy farms. The area is immense, raw, and in many parts wild, carved by nature’s winds and driving rains. It is also majestically beautiful and awe inspiring, making one feel full of life and at the same time very small. I love this place, especially the beaches where the sea comes in with freight train force, periodically changing the face of the land. This is a limited edition print, one of eight, a 12 x 18 inch archival pigment photographic print with satin finish and one inch border, unmounted. Signed, dated and numbered on front. Certificate of Authenticity included. Larger prints and framing are available upon request.

Images that arouse the mind, transform the ordinary, make one wonder, make one think. Uncommon beauty in the common world. This is what I look for in the interplay of light, shadow, and shape. And, it is what I strive to create in a photograph. I owe a debt of gratitude to those who have trusted me to photograph their creations and treasures, and for the paths their projects have helped me to find. For me, photography is an ongoing process of learning and creation, a process that never ends. Colin McRae began as a photographer of musicians for music labels and publications, later moving on to serve as the photographer for the Art Museum of the University of California at Berkeley, and eventually enjoying a long career as a freelance photographer. Currently, his work is devoted to aerial, landscape, and architectural photography with exhibits featuring his aerial and landscape work. His photographs have appeared in numerous books on art and architecture, both in the United States and abroad.
