Description
Photograph of an birdseye view of a beach, [s.d.]. Appears to have been taken from the top of a hill, overlooking the beach scene below it. Many houses can be seen below, at the far right. A road runs diagonally through the scene, and many cars can be seen driving on it. To the left of the road, many more cars can be seen parked in what appears to be the beach parking lot. Volleyball nets and players can be seen on the far left of the beach, and many more people can be seen along the beach. The beach extends into the distance. The Pacific Ocean appears prominently in the top half of the photograph, and extends to the left, into the horizon. A mountainous coastline begins at the extreme right, and curves into the center of the background, forming a bay around the ocean.
