Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Shades of Summer
On a hot summer day there are few things many others would do besides the beach, the movies, or the bar. However, she chose the the Getty museum, no not the one where I would be complaining about a heavy clutch in downtown LA traffic, the one in Malibu. I had never been to the Getty Villa, and even worse I did not have a proper camera with me. I agreed not only anxiousness, but also anxiety, what happens if the “it” shot of today happens when I don’t have any gear?
I have learned since then always to rent a convertible in California, always bring a scarf for a lady, pack a bottle of wine & gas station bottle opener with two mugs, and leave your favorite film camera in your trunk.
It felt like I handed landed on the moon. Rocks were everywhere, and there was not a soul on the beach. These photos do not need an edit in my opinion, they should serve as a reminder of the natural unedited beauty of nature we see with our our eyes. Thank you Pav for suggesting to visit El Matador beach.
Up high it seems as though nothing can touch you, but for me this is when anxiety begins. Something has to go wrong, something big, right? When it does, it it is a harsh reminder that reality is always kept in check by karma. You can’t escape the up’s and down’s of life, no one can, but you can prepare and attack them like a hill in cycling. So, when up high and alone, make sure you look down and remember your path and how you got there.
Live an honest and clean life and from what I have learned you can stay up high and soak in the sun.
