Photographer’s Note

Point Lobos is a sea side state reserve south of Monterey, California, north of Big Sur.

The very precipitous drop in the ocean floor off Point Lobos gives rise to strange tidal effects, with unusual levels of oxygen being injected into the ocean water.

The waters around Point Lobos contain extensive kelp forests.
