Looking Back & Forward

 

Sunrise at Chimney Rock, January 2012

We'd hoped the rain would hold off until late afternoon on this last day of the year, but no such luck. The plan was to explore some tidepools down the coast, but I didn't like the idea of trying to photograph in the rain with my DSLR. You can't really get a clear shot through a rain-speckled water surface. One of these days I might have to spring for a waterproof camera that I could dunk underwater. 

Stuck at home, I was looking back at Pt. Reyes photos I shot during the month of January over the years and felt a little inspiration to photograph out there more often in 2026. We'll see. The long drive is a bit of an "anti-inspiration." In the meantime, here's a look back. 

I hope all you folks out there who share this blog with me have many excellent things planned for the new year, with a sprinkling of spontaneous pleasant surprises to put it over the top. All the best for '26!
