Gosh darn. I sure do like this photo I took. This is a photo I took this past summer of a surf fisherman at Rockaway beach. He's standing at the edge of the surf with a cruise ship in the background. Here are some other beach shots.
I like those. Where where they taken?

Thanks. I took them at Jacob Riis Park, at the western end of the Rockaway peninsula.

The path to the beach is Beach 169th street. The surf fisherman photo was taken at the left (western) edge of the half-circle. The "from the boardwalk to the surf" and the clouds photo were taken around the middle of the half-circle.

Tried to post a google maps link but it kept going to Rockaway Beach, OR. I'll try again later.

Glad you liked them. But right now I have to get some sunlight and fresh air.

OK, use this latitude/longitude combination on Google Maps: 40.56778, -73.87111

and then zoom out a little, move left and down.

That'll show you where I took these photos.

That is one huge-ass parking lot. I forgot how big they are.

Oh, yeah. It goes on and on for miles. It's such a beautiful place. I loved the wide horizons, the open spaces and the quiet. It was soooooo quiet there.


I like From the Boardwalk to the Surf.

Thanks, Doohickie!

That's a good picture Jason, thanks. I'm ever so fond of surf fishing and I've always been a supporter of sturdiness.

I like to think that he's reeling in that ship...
