Fabulous La Jolla Cove

Welcome to another year and another wonderful photo opportunity with Scott Kelby’s Worldwide Photowalk (WWPW) at the fabulous and famous La Jolla Cove. I’ll be your leader for this walk – my name is Kevin and I’m a passionate photographer, a member of Darkroomers (an awesome photo club here in San Diego), and have worked for several photography software/cloud companies since 2006 – whew, a long time, and lots of stories! I’m currently with SlickPic, a leading gallery, sharing and portfolio website company who will offer some nice perks/prizes for attendees. The Darkroomers is our co-host this year, so come on out and get to know your fellow shooters – a super-friendly bunch of folks.

This year, we’re going to catch some wonderful early morning sunlight (if the fog cooperates!) as we stroll from the Cove beach around past the Bridge Club towards Children’s Pool and beyond. Sunrise is at 6:45am and high tide is at 8:13am. In past years, it has been a little on the cool side at the start, but heats up nicely as the walk goes on, so my advice would be to bring a light jacket, sunscreen and sunglasses!

If you like to shoot birds and other critters, bring your long lens, but otherwise this is a “target-rich environment” so any lens will be just fine. Seriously, there’s a lot to look at: Ocean, swimmers, rock structures, sea lions, birds, people/artists, street shooting and architecture up in the Village – and I’m sure I’m forgetting a bunch.

We’ll end at a coffee/pastry/breakfast shop called Better Buzz to “debrief”, talk about how the WWPW photo contest works and more. Hope to see y’all there! Reach out if you have any questions at all! My personal email is: cklarue@gmail.com
