Vasquez Rocks, Southern California is the site of numerous movie and commercial projects… Famously as a location where Star Trek’s Captain Kirk battled the Gorn to save his crew. You can purchase prints of these here.

The old mining ghost town East of Yosemite, North of Mono Lake. It’s shrinking.
If you find a good spot… you need to wait for the sun and earth and weather to play ball and paint the real impression you have of the place. This is a low pass on California Highway 152 in the Pacheco State Park area… at sunset.
Clearly the jewel of Big Sur!! In 1969+-, a bunch of hippies trashed the beach with party fires and beer cans. The state closed the beach. So now you can look but not touch…. too bad.

I joined up with Highway 1 at Cambria… headed north to Garrapata State Park. San Simeon, Ragged Point and the Bixby bridge are highlights… but the whole place is beautiful.

It took me 20 years to get back here (at the right week of bloom) from the first time… It’s a beautiful drainage ditch… What makes it so is it is full of Calla Lilies for a couple weeks each spring. If you are struggling… find the Bixby Bridge and go north a mile or so…
