First, a lone cyclist rides beneath the bluffs overlooking Newport Beach's Back Bay. _http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Ira+Silverman/2007+PAW/2007+PAW+8.jpg.html_ (http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Ira+Silverman/2007+PAW/2007+PAW+8.jpg.html) (Leica M4, 35 Summicron, 400TX, orange filter) Alternate 1, exposed rocks on the bluff side. The bluffs are being eroded by wind and rain. _http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Ira+Silverman/2007+PAW/2007+PAW+8A.jpg.html_ (http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Ira+Silverman/2007+PAW/2007+PAW+8A.jpg.html) (M4, 35 Summicron, 400TX, orange filter) Alternate 2, trees and shadows along a paseo. _http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Ira+Silverman/2007+PAW/2007+PAW+8B.jpg.html_ (http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Ira+Silverman/2007+PAW/2007+PAW+8B.jpg.html) (Rollei 35, 400TX) Newport's Back Bay has fallen victim to 40 years of encroaching development. A program to dredge the bay to restore the tide pools to their original configuration has recently begun. I plan on documenting the progress of this effort in future PAWS. As always, comments welcomed and appreciated. Best regards, Ira Silverman Irvine, California <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone.
