BODIES OF WATER 4 - THE ATLANTIC

(This is how themes get started. Post a shot one day, and then realize four days later you've got a theme. Who knew?) 

The Atlantic Ocean, formed as the African and European continents splits from the Americas millennia ago. It is certainly more turbulent than its larger Pacific cousin, with a dramatic history and influence on the human world.

This is the coastline of North Carolina, on Emerald Isle. A cold Autumn squall is headed in.

SAN CLEMENTE, CA - THE DEEP BLUE SEA

There is a viewpoint on the drive from LA to San Diego which will be familiar to tens of thousands of people who make this trek on a regular basis. South of San Clemente, south even of the San Onofre Nuclear reactors. It's a common stop, unusually for jost a moment or three to get out and stretch your legs on the two hour drive between LA and SD.

It's a layover. And sometimes you see other people, themselves stopping for a momentary respite before continuing south. A place where people who may not have the Pacific Ocean looking back from their morning commute.

And they stop. And look.
