McClure's Beach, Pt. Reyes

In my opinion, McClure's Beach at Point Reyes is probably the most remote place in all of Marin County...   At the south end of the beach is a narrow passageway that takes the visitor around the corner to another beach -- rocky, full of intertidal wildlife, and accessable only at low tide...

TODAY'S QUIZ:   The lower photo was shot at Fort Cronkhite Beach, but for ten-points-and-a-gold-star the question is:  where was that top photo of the sign taken?

That fellow has been standing on a little stepladder with his unusual message on a busy Chinatown street corner for the past few months...   I guess suicide is the oriental approach after such a monumental screwup...   Personally, I don't wish any physical harm on the "dynamic duo", but I'm pretty sure that when George W. gets to hell, the devil will have some serious "waterboarding" time reserved for him...

The tonal range was extreme, but I was able to salvage these photos by bringing up the lows slightly and drastically cooling off the highs with the Shadow/Highlight set of curves in PhotoshopCS3...

Well, that's actually an antique shop (top photo), but it is definitely typical of residential Bolinas...   Sometimes the antique shop is open, but most of the time it isn't...

mussels

McClure's Beach is probably one of the most remote spots in Marin County...   To get to where I shot these photos I hiked about 300 yards south on McClure's Beach to a narrow passageway between the rocks leading "around the bend" to another rocky shore accessable only at low tide...   A great place to explore for mussels and starfishes, but pity the poor photographer who doesn't keep an eye on the incoming tide...
