Swell's a comin'
It's that time of the year again, fall surf season is upon us.
I get twitchy this time of year. Every vehicle with something on the roof gets me anxious.
"Who is that? I don't recognize the boards..."
"Are they heading to the secret spot!?!"
True, there are more surfers from the city showing up at our local spots. But in the grand scheme of things, there are still plenty of waves to go around.
I captured some nice evening light in the above shot, more shots from this location to follow later this week. Enjoy!
