Through the Lens - The Lost Coast
Golden hues spill across the horizon as the sun sets over the remote expanse of the Lost Coast. I can almost hear the waves gently lapping at the rugged shoreline, their rhythmic embrace punctuated by the distant calls of seagulls settling in for the night. As the thick fog lingers just off the coastline, it patiently waits for the right time to envelop the land in its cool, mysterious embrace.
This resembles a scene straight out of Survivor, where the elements of nature clash dramatically with the human spirit's resilience.
Did you notice the small opening nestled in the top right corner of this photo?
It seems to invite a closer look, sparking curiosity about what lies beyond. A winding trail meanders gracefully down to the beach, flanked by lush greenery and the soothing sound of waves crashing in the distance.
Breathtakingly beautiful my friend. Wishing you a lovely day. ☺
ReplyDeleteWow, these are all gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteIt looks so beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSuch incredible beauty. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYour words paint the Lost Coast beautifully—there’s a timeless magic in how nature’s quiet strength meets the spirit of adventure. It’s the kind of place that stays with you long after you leave. I just shared a new travel post. I am excited for you to read it. Thank you. Happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteYou are quite the author and wordsmith Debby. I could see, hear and smell that scene. Sure makes me want to be there.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend. Its so windy here today. Everything is getting so dry.
Son Steve has done some photo workshops on the lost coast. So dramatic.
I love that little peephole looking out to the water.

We didn't have much wind here, but on the west side of Redding, it was quite windy.
DeleteYour words paint such a vivid and peaceful picture of the Lost Coast. I feel the calm of the waves and the quiet mystery of the fog as if I am there myself. Nature’s beauty always reminds us of the strength and calm within us. I just shared a new travel post. I am excited for you to read it. Thank you. Happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteYou live in such a fantastic area.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Every state has fantastic areas. Beautiful country!
DeleteI've no words to express what my eyes are seeing. Only a precious few can witness this in real life, so I'm very grateful you've shared them today!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed it.
DeleteJust wonderful wonderful pictures. So glad they went on this journey so we could see the beauty of this lost coast. Janice
ReplyDeleteSuch a stunning view, and yes, it quickly reminded me of the scenes on survivor. I did notice the hole in the far right corner...Absolutely gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely photos
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteThe little opening is so intriguing!!
ReplyDeleteI was talking with someone last night who was familiar with your area and said how beautiful it was.
ReplyDeleteOh that's nice to hear. Yes there is so much to see here.
DeleteThat first photo is so pretty. I was wondering if your son took these in in 3d images, as they are longer. Sounds like a wonderful time, and being close to nature is such a grand thing. Have a sweet Sunday.

Panoramic on his phone.
DeleteHow marvelous. My husband and I took a turn off the main road last Saturday. We were amazed at what we found down a gravel road! A river and cliffs. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteThose are usually the best adventures!
DeleteBeautiful!!
ReplyDeleteDebby, that is awesome that Theodore Roosevelt described the Falls as the eighth wonder of the world. Thanks for sharing that. I can see why he did. It puzzles me why I don't visit more often, they are amazing. I do hope you and your husband can visit in the summertime. But I wanted to tell you Spring is such a pretty time there, and it wasn't crowded at all. Summertime gets more crowded because of the tourists. The weather was really nice. I took a sweater just in case it was chilly, but I didn't need it. Sunshine and blue skies the whole time. The store there is quaint too. They even sell sandwiches now, but I got my food from Safeway deli before. ; )
ReplyDeleteWe'll go up there sometime in June. We always go mid-week and there are very few people, although this year might be more, since it was closed off to the public last year. I'm waiting for Lassen to open up - the roads are still closed from the snow. It should be soon. I enjoy driving through once a year in the summer when the roads are open.
