Sonoma Coast State Beach, California
Before heading east to the Sierras and the arid region a quick stop was made at Sonoma Coast State Beach.
This region of northern California has to be witnessed to be believed. Massive ocean going swells generated from the Pacific Ocean roll into shallow water and dissipate their power onto the rocky headlands, offshore rocks and beach. The power of these waves is awesome with some wave sets reaching 5 meters in height.
Unless your here in the very early or late afternoon to capture images at the prime time, you will definitely require a polarizing and/or neutral density filter if you intend to try and slow the shutter speed to such as extent that the water will flow across your image giving a ghostly appearance.
