Many Big Sur locals have gained a reputation for their unruly driving habits on Highway One. As summer approaches and droves of oversized camper rentals take to the road, you can see the frustration on driver's faces as they follow a line of slow moving cars, craning their necks for any possible passing opportunity. I have found that the best remedy for slow drivers is good radio and I try to enjoy my daily commute from Monterey while catching up on news and stories from NPR. Sometimes this lackadaisical attitude results in good photo opportunities along the way. A few nights ago there was an incredible wall of fog billowing off hurricane point with its Southern tip cresting like a wave over the Big Sur lighthouse. I think from now on I will make a point to make my real camera another commuting essential.
