(James, Kelly...thank you!) I'm flattered by all your kind words. Derek and all, if you would like to visit this place, it's a bit tricky to find so here's some detailed information: - This rock with the hole in it is at Pfeiffer Beach - Pfeiffer Beach is hard to find, the road to it is not marked - About 1 mile south of the Big Sur Lodge (on Hwy 1), right as the road is climbing up and curves to the left (going south) there is a sharp turn onto a 1 lane road (watch for a row of mailboxes). - You'll feel like you're driving down into people's homes but just keep going. - Two miles down you'll come to the parking lot. Park and walk about 300-400 yards down the beach. - Best light is late afternoon/sunset. The light only shines through the hole like this when there is NO fog, so watch the weather. Here's another shot of this place on a foggy day to give you the idea of what it looks like otherwise: http://lighttheexpedition.com/gallery-window-to-the-world.php Oh and don't forget your camera!! Thank you everyone! (James, Kelly…thank you!) I’m flattered by all your kind words.
