Bodega Head Ice Plant

Not having a lot of ocean scenes in my portfolio, I’ve been motivated to seek out coastal locations with offshore sea stacks for compositions when the sky gets interesting. A promising sunset prediction, a little internet sleuthing, and a little stalking of Bob Bowman’s Flickr page inspired me to make the drive to Bodega Head, a rocky peninsula on the Sonoma County coast with endless compositional opportunities at the edges of the bluffs. Although late in the season for the purple flowers, a few patches of coastal ice plant had nice red color for a warm foreground. This is a blend of 3 exposures taken over the span of a half hour: one for the foreground, one for the water and sunstar, another for the post-sunset wispy pink clouds in the sky.
