So I tend to see a lot of sunsets as you might find out... my favorite part is seeing how the textures and colors evolve and shift in the sky as the light perspective changes. I loved watching the Sand Pipers dance with the waves as they came in. That's Half Moon Bay in the distance and the world famous surf spot, Mavericks, just to the left of the headland.
