Natural Bridges State Beach, Santa Cruz, CA

Spent a few hours out with the camera in Santa Cruz. We wandered around a bit near the Natural Bridges State Beach and found a neat tidepooling spot. Definitely going to have to make it back out soon earlier in the day to have more time before the tide rolls back in. Here are a few pics!

It's so hard to get pictures of the ocean that don't look like every other picture of the ocean.

I was trying to play around with the different lens filters that came with my camera kit to take pics of the little critters wiggling around in the pools.

A bird of paradise I found along the way.

Trees! Neat!

Cat tax! Do we do that here?

I have a Canon and am definitely still learning, any advice/tips would be much appreciated!
