Point Lobos | The Sound of Surrender




In the California State Park web site Point Lobos is described as "The greatest meeting of land and water in the world" quoting the artist Francis McComa.
The description is very appropriate for this place. I experience overwhelming smells and sights in one of the most blessed places on this planet, where eucaliptus and pine trees frames dramatic views of cliffs diving in the healing waters of the mighty Pacific. I am surrounded by the sound of crashing waves and pellicans while the barking of seals suddenly arise. The sun is setting, with the blinding reflection of its light. I have no other place to go, nothing else to see or hear while I slowly surrender to the ocean...
