Big Sur

Highway One, top down

Story Nº 04

Highway One, from the top. Monterey in the dark, Bixby at first light, and the coves you have to pull over for. Fog most of the way, sun in pieces. My most recent one — shot the way the road gives it to you: slow, and then all at once.

Highway One.
Top down, no plan.
