This is another photo from the series I took in early March along the California coast north of Santa Cruz, including a set of black and white photographs shot with a long lens that feature surf fisherman walking along and into the winter surf.

Big Sur Fisherman, Winter Surf

This lone fisherman was sitting above the roiling winter surf of the Big Sur California coastline. With surroundings like this it really shouldn’t matter whether you catch anything!

One other comment: It occurred to me afterwards that this would be an entirely different photograph if the very small figure of the fisherman had not happened to be on that rock at the moment I was there to make the photograph.
