Fishing from the Pier

Taking an evening walk along the Seal Beach Pier yesterday, I stopped to watch this fisherman getting his line ready and noticed a boat speeding right toward us. It managed a nice sideways maneuver and unloaded a worker from the oil platform visible in the distance. ~SueBee

Pirate Ship Kite

The Foto Fix I’ve chosen for today was taken up California’s central coast, near Santa Cruz, during a trip I made up there in 2013. It features a really cool pirate ship kite being flown by the little boy’s daddy. It appeared to be a rather tricky kite to fly. ~SueBee
