Default Grab Bag From Monterey

A potpourri of shots taken in Monterey in November that I've just gotten around to processing.

First up, a snooty sea lion:

Of course, the ubiquitous gull:

Lastly, checking in at the cuteness desk, we have this little terrier:

Enjoy!

Cracking shots Kurt!! I was in Monterey at the start of December - your photos bring back some nice memories, although it was a tad more chilly than expected when I was there. Had a fun time though!

Great set. That is one stuck-up super-model of a sea lion. "Cuteness factor 11, Mr Sulu" on the terrier!

Thanks for sharing these.

Nice shots Kurt, love the first shot of the sea lion and the last of the little dog, and the look on that birds face is priceless!, thanks for sharing, cheers Steve.

What a great set! I love these wonderful portraits, showing so well the character of each individual! Delightful! # 2 and # 3 have the same look in their eyes -- are they related???
