A friend and I spent the day driving the down the coast scouting out locations for a Meet-up. We came home with a plan.

GRRR! I did it again. Forgot to reset my ISO from the shoot before. Thank goodness this camera can handle higher ISO’s sans horrendous noise.
Love my D300s!

“The Greatest Meeting of Land and Sea”

Big Sur is located along Scenic Highway One approx 150 miles south of San Francisco and 300 miles north of Los Angeles.
Historically, the name Big Sur was derived from the unexplored and unmapped wilderness area which lays along the coast south of Monterey. It was simply called el pais grande del sur, the Big South Country. Today, Big Sur refers to that 90 miles stretch of rugged and awesomely beautiful coastline between Carmel to the north and Simeon (Hearst Castle) to the south. Highway One winds along its length and is flanked on one side by the majestic Santa Lucia Mountains and on the other by the rocky Pacific Coast.
