  1. When the days are short, the light is low, palm trees sway in the wind, cool sea breezes blow all the way from Alaska, and, somehow, it feels like the leaves rustle in the distance, even at this southernmost reach of the seemingly "Infinite Coast".

    Taken one November outside San Diego, by yours truly.

  6. #SeaOtters are beloved for their playfulness and adorable looks, but the good they do for the environment cannot be overstated--which is why celebrating their return in places like the #PacificCoast is important.

  7. When the days haven't cooled out on the water, but the nights are longer, the sun is lower, and the dusk is all the more beautiful....

    Captured one September evening, "Blue Hour at Hermosa Beach".

  8. It's a very different place from the postcard you might have been sold, what with LAX setting a new record dew point this week...but the sun will lower, the nights will lengthen, and the storms will come back...and California's South Coast will once again be at its best.

    A dispatch from the gorgeous winter of 2023 at Santa Monica Beach, taken by yours truly.

  9. A dispatch from the less muggy times that in Southern California we call winter...when this part of the coast is at its most gorgeous.

    Taken on Hermosa Beach: "At the Shores of Dreams".

  10. Where the better side of California begins (sorry not sorry, SoCal...): believe it or not, this is directly generated based on a real picture I took of the approach to the Golden Gate Bridge. Clearer in February (when I captured this) than in the foggy season locals know as "summer", but it looked much the same when I crossed it just the other day... 🙂

  11. White-sand beach, a town that makes Malibu look like it was made for peasants, *and* nature's air conditioner still running even in the hottest month of the hottest year on record? Some places have all the luck...

    Taken in Carmel-by-the-Sea one August evening: "Welcome to Paradise".

  12. It's somehow disappointing, to head west and enjoy every minute of it...and then find there's nowhere further west you can even go. Well...there is Alaska, but even with that, when you're here, it very much feels like the "End of the Map".

    Taken by me in Redondo Beach.

  14. A scene that inspires a romantic sense of nostalgia; like a sunset a Bette Davis character would be gazing at in a rocking chair, in a vaguely colonial upper-class home, no doubt in some riveting melodrama. One can dream...

    Taken atop Pacific Palisades, "Farewell, Day that Was".

  15. When the air was fresh, the breeze was cool, the waves were a lullaby, and the sunsets were the most vivid this planet has to offer...taken my first winter at Hermosa Beach, "At the Shores of Dreams".

  16. "Power of the Pacific", I call this one; taken last summer during that fortunate day I spent on the Lost Coast of California, where the sands are black, the winds are stiff, and the crash of the waves becomes your whole world (hard to tell in the picture, but this spray enveloped a volume *much* taller than me; it was *big*!).

  17. “Little Sur River and Beach” — The Little Sur River meets the Pacific Ocean on the Big Sur Coast.

    I confess to having photographed this scene quite a few times. I live close enough to Big Sur that I can drive down for a morning of photography and be home for a late lunch. This spot, where the Little Sur River flows across Little Sur Beach and into the Pacific Ocean, has always intrigued me. I stop and at least take a look almost every time I am down there…more: gdanmitchell.com/2026/07/29/li

  18. "Go somewhere warm", we're told to live...as someone suffering through the heat of a chapparal sun as I type this, I know better. You won't experience mood like this anywhere where palm trees sway in the sultry breeze; only in the greatness that is The North.

    Taken in Florence, Oregon one August: "A Coast in Grey".

  19. "Waiting for the Customers", I dubbed this shot: a rare moment when the Cheesecake Factory at Redondo Beach was all but vacant, and the ambiance of waiters' activity and the sailboats bobbing up and down ever-so-gently in the harbor created a vibe that...well, maybe it wasn't *unique*, but it was certainly *memorable*.

  20. A split-second of a moment I captured out of a car window...but in that beautiful winter of 2023, even a glance in any direction along the coast was enough to experience the full power of what California represents in the modern imagination. I've never forgotten...

    Captured by me: "A Day at the Beach".

  21. Paradoxical, how being suffused in low clouds can make you feel like you've risen above it all, yet it's true...

    A vibe captured by me, one December afternoon in Santa Monica.

  22. People complain endlessly about the "gloom" that comes off the Pacific Ocean in the summer, but where else will you get an atmosphere like this? Taken in true color in Florence, Oregon: "A Coast in Grey".

  24. A time of day on the coast that never fails to make me feel a little bit better...

    Captured one February afternoon, "Sun Drawing Lower at Santa Monica Beach".

  25. They really ought to put an anemometer up here or *something*, for when the light hits it just right, the humble Redondo Beach pier looks like the front line between our world and that which lies beyond...

    Taken by me one summer evening: "End of the Map".
