But then we had a quick rain storm, and the sky was cloudy and dark in the west. We decided it was probably not a good time for photos.
Then at the last minute, we said, what the heck, let's just go.
It was a good decision.
We were incredibly surprised, and pleased.
It's just proof to me that no matter how dreary things may get, and no matter how tough life may become, if you are open, and willing to take a chance, beautiful things can happen.
It's so mesmerizing to just sit and watch the sun set. Sounds like the weather and the company really agree with you.
ReplyDeleteyup, well worth it. :)

ReplyDeleteOk, that last line? Love that.
ReplyDeleteAnd all the photos too ~
So true.
ReplyDeleteWow! Those photos are amazing. Thanks for going, and thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHubster and I have talked about escaping winters also. I used to love winter, the cold, the snow. Not so much anymore....I hate FL in the summer, and it's such a dull state, and I believe at some point, it will sink into the ocean long before California will. But at this rate, I'm willing to see if we could swing going to FL in winters....just to escape the East Coast Slump of winter. You're enticing me even more now! Thanks!

How wonderful to have the time to just sit... and click... and take it all in as the sun sinks down below the edge of the water. Ahhhhhhh

thank you for giving me a beautiful sunset..slowly looking, following the movement of the orb into the water..great photos, a magical journey with memory of time on the Pacific ocean shores...thank you
ReplyDeleteI love the ocean and when I go visit my sister in South Carolina we always go so I can put my feet in the salty water and listen to he waves comeing and going . The sun does some real magic at the ocean along with the Moon.. When I go to see her I make sure that the moon is full.. your pictures are so amazing~! ta ta for now from Iowa:)
ReplyDeleteThe pictures are stunning. Absolutely stunning. My favorite is #3, and the last one with the light off the clouds, well, it made me think of the Sistine Chapel. Beauty.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a little girl I used to try and listen for the hiss of the sun as it set into the ocean and steamed away...

so glad you went ... such true words and such awesome photos
ReplyDeleteLovely pix!
ReplyDeleteOh my.. what a stunning sunset series. And so true - your words. May we always remember that philosophy and employ it frequently.
ReplyDeleteThat lovely sunset probably took all of 10 minutes. It goes down so quickly! Love that last picture of the clouds!
