La Cumbre


La Cumbre by Marc Meunch

Media: Photography

Dimensions: 30 x 35 in.

Created: July 2015


  • Marc Meunch was born in 1966 in the United States. He began to explore his artistic abilities at a young age, due to the fact that his mother and father were both established artists. Meunch is most known for capturing photos of sports and places in nature. He has graced top magazines, such as, Time, National Geographic, and Traveler.

  • “This image was taken on an evening when I left my home office, threw the camera in the car and floored it all the way up the long windy mountain road to just make it in time for the clouds to turn color.” – Marc Meunch


  • La Cumber Peak is a famous sight seeing location in Santa Barbara, California. There used to be a lot of bushes and shrubs that limited the ability to see the beautiful sunset each evening, until a fire came through and burned away all of the shrubs and bushes. This fire was a horrible thing, but it allowed for everyone to see and photograph beautiful sunrises and sunsets every evening.

  • La Cumbre is a breathtaking photograph that you cannot help but stop and look at. The beautiful colors and stretch of sky is a calming picture. Feeling a sense of peace is a bit of happiness that is hard to find sometimes, and is essentially why I chose to include this piece.
