Asilomar beach is near Carmel California. I just found it and believe it is photographer's dream. Have to uncover more. Made 2 trips so far and found two different kind of light and conditions.

Below are my attempts. All criticism is heartily cherished!

    Absolutely prehistoric looking. I think I see some Trilobites crawling up onto the shoreline in some of those images. #'s 3 and 8 are my faves.

    Well... I can't think of one critical thing to say. Beautiful. I especially liked #3, where you turned to the north and caught the subtle play of light on the rocks and hitting that one wave.

    Cheers, Sara

    Beautiful set, Taz. I love the color of the water you captured in 2 & 3, which also got great light on foreground and background. The others are really nice, but number 7 doesn't do much for me. Nice sky there, but the rest is a bit flat. Maybe brighten and warm the foreground a bit? I guess that comment reflects what I like so much about 2 and 3. Thanks for sharing.
