Mendocino Village California at twilight

Mendocino Dusk

Stephen Phillips (San Francisco, United States) on 9 June 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

A 'heart-felt' welcome back from the bluffs that define this beautiful coastal promontory. Archival image from 2006.

This to honor Jerry Freeman ( 'ordinaryimages' ) - who wanted to see some Mendocino photography as a partial reward for his excellent observations in solving the "Image Series: A Common Thread"

I'll try to post a few more Mendocino images for you soon.

(Jerry - the Ferry Boat tickets will remain yours should you find yourself in the Bay Area at any point - just let me know)

I like the blueish touch of this image. The only thing not appearing blue is the sign... Works good. Even if I did not take an active part in your recent puzzle solving series I was still always around taking a look. I just did not have a clue to share ;-) Still a great idea, Stephen.

It looks like a real nice place to visit with a quiet, somewhat remote feel to the place. Nicely photographed.

I love the arrow in this shot - it leads the viewer down the road to new sights.....that sign with the heart is so unusual - you miss it at first, but then it catches your eye.....
