This photograph was taken from Santa Monica Promenade and captures dusk looking across Santa Monica Bay towards Malibu in the distance. The road in the foreground is Highway 1 which runs all the way up the coast of California from Capistrano Beach,south of Los Angeles to San Francisco. If you every have a chance to drive Highway 1 you should just once for the experience, it's one of the most spectacular drives you will take. The houses by the road in this photograph are right on the beach, the owners just walk out the gate at the rear of their garden straight onto the sandy beach. Click on the photo for a larger version.
