The recent spate of winter storms in Northern California brought to mind photos I took at Baker Beach three winters ago (below). In the first photo one can also make out the lighthouse at Point Bonita in the Marin headlands on the image’s left side, just above the wave. If I recall correctly, this was an exceptionally late storm, occurring as it did in June, when the storm door has typically long slammed shut, and the Pacific high has begun blocking the march of mid-latitude storms for duration of the summer.
