Still at Inspiration Point in Corona del Mar. Getting an impression why it is called Orange County…

Stare
I don’t know what you think how I find the spots where I do photographs like this one. Pure luck! Okay, not at all. In most cases I discover the whole area on Google Earth and use Streetview as well. The picture shown here was done on the second last day of my trip and I had a long to-do-list after leaving the office. So I grabbed summer clothing and camera in the morning, changed it on leaving the office and made a big round trip through Orange County and its malls to spend some money. When done with shopping I tried to get to the coast before sunset. On arrival in Newport Beach I took a random road to the beach and what a luck – I directly ended on a place called “Inspiration Point”. I think I have seen why it is called this way.

Around the Corner
Always hunting for the sun! When arriving somewhere, first thing is turning towards the sun. (as you can see in my previous posts – I’m addicted to back light photos).
Newport Beach
As alway on my business trips: leave the office, check the light conditions and drive to a spot already discovered on Google. This time I drove to Newport and threw my stuff on the beach and watched the scene relaxing in the sun and figuring out where to catch some nice shots. This is what I got when I was walking around in the streets near the beach.
