The Big Sur

Around the Big Sur

When I look at the images I took from the Big Sur and our drive along the coast and see the blurry points in the distance when the sea it melting into the horizon I remember all the moments we stopped and were looking back and ahead and out to the sea, trying to freeze moments, keep them and what we felt in them.

I fell in love with all the beautiful colours there, the different blues of the sea, sky, horizon, greens and browns of the fields, grasses, mountains, rocks....

I felt time can go a lot slower in such places

oh, ihr hattet aber schoenes wetter! dieser kuestenabschnitt versinkt nur allzu oft im nebel...das steht ihm allerdings auch sehr gut. big sur ist wirklich ein verwunschenes fleckchen erde. und einer meiner lieblingsorte in kalifornien!

@Agnieszka Yes, we rented a car for the trip. I think Enterprise was the name of the company
