A PHOTO MOMENT



I borrowed the image of blue and yellow from “Cup On The Bus” "Cup on the Bus" who got it from Allison, who doesn’t remember where she found it.  It says it for me…Perfectly.


Often I am forced to take my photos out the car or truck window.  Not that I like to do this, mind you.  By the time I’ve asked them to stop, to back up, the photo is long gone.  These happy flowers are being brought to you from Oregon.



I  took this from the old WWII road that runs below the lighthouse.

 



 And too, we have cruise ships in port and off the coast again.  Wonderful for the economy, but best of all they are good for dreaming.  Those ice plant covered sand dunes carry a secret message.   For years one of the maintenance men put ice plant in orderly mounds.  They read “Coronado.”   I can’t get high enough to photograph it from the beach, but there is a photograph of the word on the link.

  1. Would love to know the history of the lighthouse and that old WW2 road. Never heard of an ice plant. Interesting. Linda in Kansas

  2. Loved that first shot. Lovely image in support of Ukraine. That link would open for me. A drone would let you get the height you want plus let you photograph places you can't get to. If I were techie I'd love one.

  3. Yeah, getting access to good photos ain’t always easy anymore. I was watching a utube photog yesterday who has a bad leg and had to keep his outings short and on good paths.

  7. If you took any of these out a truck or car window, I'm impressed! I can never take decent pictures from a moving vehicle.

  9. That lighthouse looks as though it came from some other time, certainly. Actually, some of my fvorite photos have been taken from the passenger window of the car.
