Balboa Jetty
Originally uploaded by Bassoon Man.

This is one of the few successful photos I managed to take during my “MiniKAP” adventure to the Balboa Peninsula. Due to the decreasing winds, I wasn’t able to get much altitude on my rig (the Titanic) and, therefore, most of the pictures that were taken merely showed the surface of the water and nothing else. This photo, however, shows the jetty that protects the entrance to Newport Bay. During stormy weather, the left (west) side of the jetty can be hit hard and often crashes over the rocks.
