Above the Bustle — LAPC #102

·

Hi All 👋 here’s my entry for Patti’s challenge: A Quiet Moment.

These shots were taken 10 years ago when my wife & I were staying in Serra Canyon, Malibu, CA. Not far away is the rush of the Pacific Coast Highway, & the Malibu Country Mart at Cross Creek. As well at the hustle of the shops, seen in some shots is Pepperdine University, packed full of people striving to learn, & nearby the queues of surfers lining up for the perfect wave.

But, above it all is the Serra Hills, all fresh green now, sprouted out from still visible fire damage. Up here it’s quiet & serene, the ocean in the distance, & just the sigh of the wind (& occasional click of the shutter) to accompany you; many a quiet moment above the bustle

…and perfect for those quiet moments…

    Lovely photos, Sweetie! We’ll get back there someday… I’m going to pay Mantra on repeat for the next three days–this is your own fault.

    Interesting variety. Well done. That’s a Pittsburgh Steelers NFL logo on the makeshift cross. Odd.

    I’m always amazed at how just beyond density there are beautiful, serene spots that most people never get to. Beautifully captured Jez
