Big Sur / Carmel
	The Monterey Peninsula, the Big Sur Coast and the areas of Pacific Grove, the Pebble Beach 17 Mile Drive and the Carmel area are some of the State of California's great treasures. Many artists have painted and photographed these areas and many have made it their home. I have only started to capture the beauty and essence of this part of the California coast. It is my I hope to create many more images of this area and follow, if possible, in the footsteps of such masters as Ansel Adams and Edward Weston, just to name a few.
		Dreamscape Big Sur, California Moments stilled in dreams of flight, waves wash endlessly as the earth awaits the force of tides.

		Realm of the Spirit Rocky Point, Big Sur, California Can you feel the wind on the grass? Don't you feel like you want to look around the hill in the foreground and see what's out there, too? The blue water, the white waves, the wind and the air all come together here to create a view that seems to never end. Could this be the Realm of the Spirits that enchant and inspire us?

		Cove of Emotion Cypress Cove, Point Lobos State Park, California Where the waves roll and crash in a melodic and calming manner, one's emotions well up as does the water. Yet the strength of the trees that cling to the cliff grant stability in the midst.

		Path of Devotion Pescadero Point, Pebble Beach, California When my parents went on their honeymoon, driving the "17 Mile Dive" some 45 years ago, they took pictures of themselves next to the Cypress tree I call "Dance of the Cypress," with these rocks in the background. I had always wanted to find this location and photograph it again for them. The two Cypress on the left were not in their photo, so they, like myself, came after their pictures was taken. My parents are still together, living and loving on their path of life.

		Dance of the Cypress Pebble Beach, California The area around this tree, also at Pescadero Point, is quite different than when my parents visited it and photographed themselves next to it in the early 1950's. The graceful movement of the trunk seems to depict two trees dancing on this wonderful bluff above the Pacific Ocean. My parents have enjoyed a wonderful life and to them I dedicate this image. It symbolizes the amazing strength their lives have brought to so many on this earth.

		Endless Vision Vista Point, Big Sur, California How far is endlessness? When is it that soul reaches deep into itself and begins to experience what it cannot see, feel what it cannot touch, discover what is only in the heart? When there is a place of endless vision.
