Classic Mendocino

Posted by john4jack (Corvallis, Oregon, United States) on 21 May 2010 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

The trip from Bandon to Mendocino was constant rain. Except for strong winds, it was very nice in the lovely coastal community.

High performance in these rocks of the coast that will soften as they move toward the coast of the far right (mine) The textures and color of the sea are wonderful. A powerful landscape. Excellent light.
A big hug and many kisses friend Jack! Más de todo, Adela

This is gorgeous - the colors and light are magnificent.
I wonder how it would have looked if you'd put the horizon at the 1/3 point and shown more water.

21 May 2010 1:20pm

@Judy: Thank you. My focus was the headlands.

Carmen from Madrid, Spain

I agree- a classically wonderful image! I love all the detail in the rocks, and the "door" makes an excellent focal point!

A beautiful coastal shot. I like the rugged rocky look of the place with rivulets of water spilling back into the ocean. A fine image.

Sorry to hear that you ran into so much rain. Thank goodness the coastline provided you the opportunity to capture these great views. The blue water is so mesmerizing. The high winds you speak of are quite evident in the whitecaps.
