Blue Sky Blue Water

Sunrise, went out walking. Over the crest of the point and down to the ocean. Watched the sky change color.

Look southeast..................................... Look west

Look northwest...................................... This one's for Bo, look in the sky

Down at the pier I can see the lines coming in. No one in the water here, though, tide still kind of low.

People starting to show up.

Cormorants are sitting on Bird Sh.t Rock, the waves sound a big ka-whump! when they hit the cliff, and the resultant sea mist hangs in the air.

The surf rats are fired up, "I've NEVER seen it like that!"

The action is all the way south at Ladera Street, where there are a series of reef breaks. It's crowded, the waves are big, moving fast, and difficult to catch. Unfortunately I didn't have my long lens, but it was so much fun watching these rides.

No real point to this thread, but it was a nice morning walk.

Truely a great walk Kim but I would rather be in the water wet suit and all. I usually walk in the evenings...hence the sunset thread; but occasionally I walk in the morning...hence the sunrise thread. Thanks for posting your walk.-Peter

Kim,

That's a great walk any time of the day, but the morning is definitely special! Those perfectly clear winter mornings in San Diego make for outstanding photography. But I can't make out who the 737 belongs to in the fourth photo in the first post. Next time please bring your long lens!

I can see the logo -- the blue face on the tail? Sound familiar?

Amazing you can make that out! That would make it Alaska Airlines, probably on its way to Hawaii! And the true challenge is to get the plane between those two Washingtonias! Like this Japan Airlines Boeing 787 on its way to Tokyo.
