I took this photograph yesterday morning, at Point Lobos, near Monterey, CA.
This is an area where Edward Weston lived, and took many of his images in the first half of the 20th century.

Oh I've not heard of this guy - shame on me.
But lovely to try a B&W for a change - I think it is harder to make a good B&W photo than a colour one (not that I think this shot is better in B&W).
I think I prefer it with a dark background sea - or is the lighter sea better?
Finally colour
