Point Vicente lighthouse is located at the most southwest corner of the Palos Verdes Peninsula. In the background, 26 miles away, is Catalina Island.
I previously posted this in May and selected it for CDP Theme Day since it is the quintessential Palos Verdes view.

This is a great one Tash! Happy New Year!
What a beauty! The colours and light are gorgeous.
Happy New Year again!
This is such a glorious photo, the sea, the rich colour of those cliffs. What a beautiful place to live..Wishing you all good things for 2009..
Beautiful lighting and colours in the cliff. Wayne and I are sitting here in our condo in Powell River watching the Rose Parade. Why aren't we at our cabin you ask? It's the USC game this afternoon of course. Happy New Year! - Margy
Nice one!
Great Shot!! Happy New Year!
That is a great photo indeed! I love the color of the red soil! Happy 2009!
Beautiful shot! Happy New Year from Tempe, AZ!
I've been and it is beautiful. For me Palos Verdes is the most beautiful of the Los Angeles area coastal cities.
Perfectly lovely, and a great choice! Happy 2009, Tash!
Portland Oregon Daily Photo sends you heartfelt wishes for the new year. May your 2009 be filled with good health, riches of the mind and heart, loved ones returning home, an increased respect for our fragile planet, and the cessation of wars across the Earth.
What a great photo! Thanks!
Awesome!
my verification word is benneur - weird, right?
I wasn't blogging back in May so I haven't seen this one. It's beautiful. If you're still good for the offer of one of your photos then this would be the one! Happy New Year to you and yours, Tash!
What a photo!!! I love it !
Happy new year from Greece!
Such a warm colour picture!!
Great choice!!
Happy New Year to you and your family
Happy New Year! Or maybe Merry New Year, to differentiate myself from the crowd...
Tremendous shot. Marvellous effort that.
Oooh. Looks like a postcard. Great choice.
Great choice, beautiful photo. Happy New Year!
Oh Yeah Tash! Talk about perfection. This is it. And so CLEAR, too! The quality of light brings out those gorgeous colors so well. Now you've got me humming, "Twenty six mile across the sea, Santa Catalina is a waiting for me, Santa Catalina, the island of romance, romance, romance, romance. . ." This is sooooo ultra "old" California, the way it all seemed to be along the coast when I was growing up.
And I loved your blimp photo new year wish and a previous shot showing snowy Mt. Baldy. That really says New Year to me.
Blessings in this new year, and continued fun bringing us your great shots!

I can see why you picked this one! Gorgeous!
California Dreaming is the song that runs through my head when I see your photos. Great shot of another nostalgic site for me.
Wow Tash, what a stunning photo. I hadn't seen this one before. Happy New Year to you!
O yes this is a truly marevllous photo - happy new year
The colours are so rich!! I own a coffee-table lighthouse book and your photo is as good as, if not better than any in it. Because I was born in a small town on Lake Michigan and often went to sleep with the sound of the lighthouse's foghorn in my ears, I have an affection for them. Now that we live close to Lake Superior, I can still indulge my love for lighthouses. Great photo!
How lush! I always wanted to live in a lighthouse.
Not surprised you chose this. It's absolutely fabulous - a stunner. The colours are so marvellous, the aspect super.
Wishing you and your loved ones a Happy New Year, Tash.
Great photo! The colour of the cliff is amazing and makes a beautiful contrast with the sea.
My best wishes for 2009!
I love the colors of this spectacular view. You have an interesting perspective.
Beautiful colors! Happy New Year!
It is spectacular.
A great shot and a great view...
It's really beautiful!
Since I'm new to your blog, I missed this one the first time around. I'm so glad you chose to share it again! It's just beautiful!
A real beauty here. Love seascapes with lighthouses.
Wow ! I missed this one. So beautiful!
It's a wonderful photo indeed !!! I hope I can wish you an Happy New Year even if so dramatically late and thank you for visiting my blog !
I love this photo. So, I have to ask ... can I use it for an inspiration for a painting? Please? I grew up in Palos Verdes and would love to paint this. Thanks for your comment on my PV Drive South painting.
