Another shot from our trip to Morro Bay. I took it about an hour before sunset and used a telephoto lens for a tight crop. Previously my go to lens for vast landscapes was always a wide or standard lens but lately I have been forcing myself to use telephotos to see more details which are present in vast landscapes. The moment I saw that small haystack next to the giant Morro rock, I knew I wanted to get an intimate shot of that rock formation. Once I used the telephoto focal length I also noticed the tons of birds on them. I also wanted to include the gentle waves to give the scene some depth.
