La Jolla Cove Underwater Park

It was another Monday photo shoot day. Mondays are my days off so I always look for somewhere to go. I headed off to La Jolla Cove, a favorite place of mine. On the way, I looked to the right and I saw a sign that looked like it was from the City of San Diego. I parked my car and walked around the corner and sure enough....it was a city park. This one was called Underwater Park. This park was on the cliffs above a favorite San Diego diving and snorkeling spot, hence the term...Underwater Park.

First thing I saw was this awesome purple flowered plant....in someone's driveway! I can't believe people get to live on this cliff with this view! I decided to stop for my first shot of the day. I took 3 different exposures and used HDR to get this shot. I was inches away from the purple plant and I used my Canon 10-22 lens on my 40D. I shot this at 10mm.

Next, I found a trail that wrapped around the cove and came across these wild daisies. They were super beautiful. I dropped my tripod down to about a foot and a half off the ground and put it right in the middle of the daisies. I shot this one at 10mm too. The view was very nice. The pollen was crazy! Next time I'll bring the antihistomine! I took several more shots around the cove....all-in-all....a great San Diego morning!
