Way back in '95 I was traveling down the coast of California and grabbed this shot and submitted it to the Time & Place website. Here's what I wrote back then about it.

Route 1, California
October, 1995

I was in San Francisco for the first time, and was very disappointed because of all the fog and bad weather.
But the weather didn't stop me Saturday morning. I got up at about 5 a.m. and hit the road with not a clue where to go. I found a map and on it, Route 1, and off I went with lots of film. The early morning shots were not good because of the heavy fog, even though I hit every sight-seeing spot and pull off spot along the way to try to get a shot of something that would make the trip worthwhile.
As I jumped in and out of the car, racing down Route 1 through Carmel, the 17 mile drive, Monterey and Big Sur, I came upon this shot. With my Canon EOS on automatic I got this shot, which made the whole drive worth it. As I took the speedy route home via a main highway, I listened to my home team the Atlanta Braves win the World Series. People driving by me must have thought I was crazy, jumping around in the car.
