A little peace among the madness
Photos from the three mile undeveloped coast at Huntington Beach State Park.
Well worth the $5 admission to get away from the objectionable over development existing north and south of this unspoiled three miles.

Having My Cake And Eating It Too
Bonnie usually grows a fern in a raised pot under one of our front trees each Spring, and then in October, before the first frost, I transplant it to the woods in the back. I did the transplant this year, just before our recent fall road trip to Vermont. I wandered back to the woods’…
Between hope and despair, the story you tell
This goes along with the theme in the last post of each of us having different perspectives not only of art but also life in general. In looking back through some of my archived photos I’m visualizing opportunities not recognized before, such as a photo of vultures in Texas made in 2016. I was given vultures…

Paul, yes, these were made with the OMD. I’ve also noticed in certain cases, as you described, the bluish tint. Certainly different then my Nikon as well. In this case I went with it, emphasizing it even more during post-processing.
We have some spots like this near me, except they are more like 300 feet of unspoiled shoreline. :-) Looks like a great spot Earl.
