Bill Oxford noticed a low fog approaching the part of The Sea Ranch where he lives. The sunbeams mixed with fog created these lovely photos.
Bill is a professional photographer and I always appreciate it when he shares his talent with Mendonoma Sightings. You can see much more of his photography at this link: https://www.billoxford.com/
Today the dawn brought...rain! Not a lot, but it's definitely rain, about a tenth of an inch.
Sunbeams through the trees can be a work of art, a work of art by Mother Nature. Shirley Mitchell photographed this beautiful sight.
Thanks to Shirley for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
It's a beautiful Spring day on the Mendonoma Coast today. No clouds, a slight breeze and temps in the high sixties. Nice!
Peggy Berryhill was traveling along the coast when she saw this beautiful sight at Elk - the iconic, much photographed sea stacks.
And out over the Pacific Ocean, sunbeams pierced the fog.
We are more likely to see sun rays, also called God's rays, from storm clouds but no such luck. Storms are staying way to our north bringing foggy right along the coast and mild sunny weather elsewhere. If you are suffering from the intense cold in many parts of the country, the Mendonoma coast could be the perfect antidote!
Thanks to Peggy for allowing me to share her photos with you here.
Allen Vinson was photographing some of the sights at The Sea Ranch recently. He saw a beautiful wave with rooster tails - the top water being blown off.
The sun was just coming up behind the trees, creating beautiful sunbeams.
And Allen found one of the Mendonoma coast's many waterfall.
Thanks to Allen for allowing me to share his photos with you here. If you'd like to see more of Allen's nature photography, here is a link: http://allenvinson.smugmug.com/
Waterfalls should be full for this weekend after today's rain. We received a solid inch of the wet stuff.
Sometimes you almost can't believe your eyes - the sunset is that beautiful. Tricia Schuster photographed a recent sunset with the sky turning the most amazing colors.
Her husband, Jon Loveless, also photographed a beauty.
These sunbeams shining through the clouds are sometimes called God's rays. It's quite dramatic to see them.
And now we head into November. We are experiencing warm, Indian Summer days right now. Even though the weather is sublime, we know changes are ahead.
Thanks to Tricia and Jon for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
