Point Lobos and the Big Sur coast at dawn        Images © Mark A. Chappell

The area south from Pebble Beach includes Pt. Lobos and the northern Big Sur coast, some of the most scenic regions of the central California coast.   Legions of photographers have made plenty of images of this area.   I shot these at sunrise from Cypress Point in Pebble Beach, using multi-second exposures to soften the action of waves and ocean swell.   In the upper left image, you can faintly see the light from the Point Sur lighthouse.
