“Stilts, Malibu” from Stephen in London.
I spent the day in Malibu today, so I had to select a photo that did it justice. I am probably biased since I have some very personal memories of the place, but beyond the mythic, Hollywood-soaked images most of us associate with Malibu, there is a deeper, richer and darker side to it that not everyone appreciates. Stephen’s photo nails it.
It was clear and blue today, but as I was driving north along the coast the clouds began rolling in again. The sun is low in the sky now and I imagine that the beach has started to look much like it does here.
You can see more of Stephen’s black and white landscapes on his flickr stream.

love the sense of the monochomatic– timeless but lonely…
The tones and the light are what drew me to this, but also the sense of isolation. Thanks for commenting Candace!
