Outdoor Wednesday / Cambria, California - Views With a View!


Outdoor Wednesday







These photographs were taken this past weekend in Cambria, California. Cambria is a picturesque little seaside town sitting right on the bluffs above the Pacific Ocean near San Luis Obispo. The views from the bluffs are as good as a view can get! I really like the wooden board walks and steps down to the water. There are times when going down the steps would not be smart! It is windy along these bluffs most of the time and a bit chilly.

Beautiful shots of the coastline.

The perfect captures! I always like to see your coast there because ours is so different. I love the rocky coastline of California. It's beautiful and wild. Every shot is great.

Happy OW to you...

XO,

Great shots! I have never managed to get surf shots I'm happy with. You inspire me to try again.
We seem to enjoy visity the same places. We've been to Cambria several times. We rented a house on the ocean so my mother could enjoy it from her chair.

Great series of photos, Carolyn. I have enjoyed touring Cambria with you today. I was looking for ABC, but couldn't by-pass these gorgeous photos.

We have a home in Cambria and think that it is one of the most beautiful places on earth!

Carly said...

wow, you always have amazing pictures, but today's are fabulous! I love the first with the couple walking along the boardwalk.

Sigh, wish I was there seeing that coastline right now. I live in the flatlands near Lake Michigan in Illinois. I miss the mountains, the slap of the ocean against boulders and just the smells of the sea. Wonderful photos!

This looks like a lovely place! Your photos are beautiful, especially the wave crashing on the rocks. Fantastic shot! Kathy

Thanks for sharing such great photos! We don't have the crashing waves here (except during a hurricane!) like they do in CA.

The view is exquisite! I love all the rocks and the waves crashing over them. OH, I'm getting homesick for the ocean - the Atlantic Ocean where I grew up, though.

Ebie said...

Those are great waves! Your post gave me ideas on where to go for a getaway!

I feel like traveling with you and Jerry. My favorite picture is the first one in which a couple is walking along the boardwalk.

What beautiful photos! I especially love the first and the last two shots.

Thank you for sharing Cambria with us!
