Andrei Tarkovsky at the Tide Pools

Today we went to the tide pools at Crystal Cove State Beach.  I filmed this short video mostly because the way that the sea grass was dancing and swaying in the tide's vaivén was beautiful and mesmerizing, but also because it reminded me of the opening shot from Andrei Tarkovsky 1972 film Solaris (below).

Can I just say I'm stoked to live near some great tide pools. I have fond memories of my dad taking me to the tide pools in the Monterey area when I was a kid, and now I get to take my kids!

I went to tide pools when I was younger too. It was wonderful to watch my kids enjoy what they saw. Their joy and passion for learning and seeing new things feeds mine.
