I can't believe I can't spell "Newport" in the above comment...Geez! And, I now believe you were standing on the Newport Pier rather than the Huntington Pier...
Beautiful shot James, what a fantastic capture. Love the horizon in the distance. And I really love seeing all the people in the water - a real birds eye view! Thanks for the visit, Kreuz' is good, but Blacks rocks! Hope I didn't just lose some Texas followers lol. Kathy
Beautiful photo. Re your words about seeing California, imagine sitting on the bird and flying - what a fantastic adventure. Cheers. Melbourne Daily Photo
