Thirsty Thursday: Point Lobos Sunrise

Rambler: Beth

Drink at Hand: 2010 Hahn Meritage

Good evening and welcome to another Thirsty Thursday...time to pour something yummy and make those weekend plans. This week I dug into the archives and found some photos I needed to edit.

When I first moved back to California from Lousyana, I had nothing to do but ride my bike and take photos. One morning I found myself at Point Lobos State Natural Reserve on the south edge of Carmel for sunrise. It wasn't the best sunrise morning, but Point Lobos is beautiful in pretty much any light. I'll let the photos do the rest of the talking.

If you find yourself in Carmel, you should definitely visit Point Lobos. Wherever you are this weekend, get out there and find a sunrise.

Old Ord

A couple weeks ago my cyclocross-racer-weatherman-photographer friend invited me out to shoot a few places in Ft Ord when I hadn't been before. He's been going out there for several years and has documented the changing landscape there. I'm always happy to go shoot some desserted and decaying buildings. First we went to the old stockade. I'd never been in a jail. Very interesting. Slightly depressing.

A mystery of the abandoned Ft Ord is all the chairs. Lone chairs were left all over the place.

From the stockade we headed over to the old Engineering building. We decided it would be a great place for a dance club. Plenty of space for a stage for live music, a space upstairs for a VIP room, sweet industrial feel...just need to replace a few windows. I found the graffiti fascinating (there are some talented artists out there, in spite of their choice of canvas).

I have a thing for electrical boxes I guess...
