Description


Captured way back on 3/9/07. at the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve. The Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve is a nature reserve in the city of Huntington Beach, California. It is designated by the California Department of Fish and Game to protect a coastal wetland, with its resident threatened and endangered species. "Bolsa Chica" means "little bag" in Spanish, as the area was part of a historic Mexican land grant named Rancho La Bolsa Chica. The Reserve is also called many other names, including Bolsa Chica Lowlands, Bolsa Chica Wetlands, and Bolsa Chica Wildlife Refuge. Source: Wikipedia free encyclopedia. Despite the description, I saw very little of any life forms the few times I was there. Some egrets, herons, small birds, a few lizards, and a rabbit. But the ideal place to be if you want to get away from people.

I guess I never realized it had these cliff formations; I remember Bolsa Chica Beach from when I was a young teenager, before it got the designation as a wetlands sanctuary or ecological preserve...it does look like a great place to escape the rest of humanity!

I finally looked this place up on a map---you've posted shots of this many times, and I never really knew how close it was to LA. Because, but for the low house on the left, and a car or two in the background, this could be in Africa. (I was amazed to see that it's 20-30 miles from LA---a mere jaunt.) In any case, a keen geological capture, with the contours curving around beautifully, and the textures of the land shown beautifully too. I can't imagine cliffs on the SCal shore, but California has massive mountains and craggy shorelines, so why not. In any case, a long open shot of beautiful desolation, and you caught the hue contrasts too. I wonder, with helle, whether the water is as present now as it was in 2007. Another fine shot of this locale from you, Harry.
