From Big Sur to Napa Valley

In 2010, I have made a week-long solo trip traveling in the Bay Area. It was an ambitious plan that would cover from Big Sur to Napa Valley while meeting couple friends on the way.

Chasing Butterflies


I am obsessed with butterflies. They are such beautiful creatures but super hard to capture because of their constantly unpredictable movements. I found this one, followed it through the lavender garden, and got this one shot. Not the best but a happy photographer I was.

Lavender Farm


After a round of wine testing, I explored the lavender farm of the winery. The aroma of lavender and the tranquility of the surrounding helped me relaxed a little after hours of driving.

San Francisco Cable Car


The cable car is the signature mean of transportations in the city of San Francisco. It literally takes you to any major tourist attraction in the area, but... I still haven't ridden on it.

Pacific Grove


As easily accessible as this "beach" is, the water and sand are surprisingly clean and clear. I would say this is a hidden gem!

Bixby Creek Bridge


The Bixby Creek Bridge is an architectural masterpiece that symbolizes Big Sur. The shore next to it is inaccessible so the water is extremely clean and clear. Perfect place for panorama.
