Salmon Creek

Early last month, I attended the Sonoma County Autumn Photo Workshop hosted by Derrick Story. Our first location was the beach at Salmon Creek. There was a large accumulation of driftwood that was spread over the beach.

This driftwood provided plenty of resources to construct shelters along the beach. This was one of server shelters that we found.

Crawling into the shelter, I captured this image looking out of the shelter towards the pacific ocean.

There were a variety of methods used to construct these shelters. I found this cord that was used to bind driftwood.

Included among the driftwood were several strands of kelp that were washed up onto the beach. The following image reminds me of the Borg Queen!

Several pieces of driftwood had been buried below the beach sands. I found this large piece of partially buried driftwood.

After leaving the beach, we headed farther up the coast. Here I captured an image looking back towards Salmon Creek.
