Honestly if one didn't believe in a higher power before this trip, the undisturbed beauty of the islands and the amazing creatures that live there would have convinced them differently. Add to that the most spectacular dawns and sunsets to start and end each day with glory and you KNOW that the master artist is at work!
If you ever get a chance to visit these islands do, it! But make sure to leave it as untouched as it was when you arrived taking only the wonderful memories that remain forever. I want my children and grandchildren to enjoy it too.
I took a million photos. I have several series of photos of sunrises and sunsets. Amazingly, each photo is different.. reflecting the variations of gorgeous color as the sun makes its ascent or silently sinks below the horizon. I get a wonderful feeling just thinking about it.
This painting was done in the studio. It is a memory of the time of our last sunset before we left Santa Cruz Island and approached Anacapa for our final day's adventure in the Channel Islands. Can you see the pelicans coming home to roost on the rocks? There's even a little sea lion in there!
