Mussel Rock Park, Summer Solstice 2021


I love this place--that I just found! It's almost as good as Big Sur, but 15 minutes from my door, just north of Mori Point in Pacifica.
I want to come back with my DSLR bc my phone (yes, these pics are just from my Google Pixel) isn't capturing the wide array of hues in the water. The light changes a lot here, right on the edge of the fog line, which makes for enchanting palettes.
I also want to come back with sound recorders. The ocean makes quite a sonic spectrum, with typical ocean wave white noise, and then deep infrasound rumblings from swells around and through a (keyhole) rock formation. 
It's so relaxing and so precarious at the same time. Few people, low sensory environment, the lull of the waves, but then unstable landscape, sweeping cliffs, the San Andreas.
Lots of paragliders, too, with colorful "wings."
Quite magical!

What's up with this new formatting of the Google blog, though?  It sucks! I had to go into the HTML to set padding so my words weren't crashing into the edges of the text box, and in the HTML I had to set the normal text background color--in like 16 places-- from a harsh white.  How time-wasting. Does anyone know how to fix that?  I don't see anything in settings.  Maybe it's a bug for just this day.  Weird.   Anyway, enjoy the pics!
