Photos from a morning visit to La Jolla Cove, where playful California Sea Lions jumped, dove and swam in the waves.
Last Saturday, I went to La Jolla with my photo club, for dawn photos at the tide pools of Hospital Point — and the conditions were quite challenging!

Currently, we’re seeing a “red tide” algae bloom in San Diego. It’s a bit smelly and awful looking in the daytime (it smells of rotting trash and the ocean has a brownish color), but at night, when the breaking waves agitate the algae, they give off a somewhat eerie, blue glow, which is quite mesmerizing.
Long exposure seascapes at a very, very blue hour (three photos), and an bit of an aha moment about the camera position I ended up using for these images.
