La Jolla, No. 1.
This is the first of what I think will be a long series of photos, all of which were taken at Cuvier Beach in La Jolla, California. My aim was to catch something of the interplay of moving water and light using long exposures and deliberate camera movement. I think these abstracted views can sometimes reveal unexpected forms and colors that would otherwise go unnoticed.
The location for these photos is a place I first encountered reading Cannery Row by John Steinbeck. In the book the marine biologist, Doc, travels to the La Jolla tide pools to collect specimens, and makes a gruesome discovery. To take these photos I stood on the same bouldery flat that Steinbeck described. This was my first visit to La Jolla, in body at least. I’m very glad to have seen it at last.
