my most adventures excursion in a long time, climbing down to a different level of the
planet - beach at the salmon creek river in sonoma county/california/usa. the rocks are
exposed at low tide. dipped into instant overwhelmingly eerie, disorienting beautiful scenery,sinking sand, mist and fast movements, sharp icy wind, creatures taking slowly shape all around, amplified surf stuffing ear drums, poseidon lifted the seems of his coat for 30 minutes and then lowering down again, hiding all his treasures.. no mercy for the tiny, frozen and bewildered photographer in awe...poseidon just rolling along, the waves and all....
life is good.....

bodega is one of my favorite places....added the church/coast/bell tower and cemetary image on on 7/20/08

UPDATE
i was just referring a visitor (dear char) to the image of nicholas green grave...she couldnt find it....and indeed, several images from the original gallery simply DISAPPEARED......wowwww....i am in kind of a shock....did this happen to anybody before???
