Diamond Street Rocks and Stairs | Laguna Beach, CA

Description

The beaches around Diamond St. and Victoria St. are some of my favorite beaches in all of Southern California. Even if I make it down there only to find the fog rolling in and killing the sunset light, just taking a few minutes to enjoy the serenity of it all makes the trip worth it.

I got lucky on this day; I arrived early and was able to shoot this unexpected image right before the one I was really after: "Diamond Street Beach | Laguna Beach, CA" elsewhere in my DeviantArt gallery. Two shots in one day more than made up for any that I've lost over the years at this beautiful location.
