I spent the past 4 weeks on a project in the Santa Barbara California area and this was one of the sunsets I enjoyed in front of our rental house. It rained most of our time there but no complaints, most needed to help fill the dried up reservoirs in the area.
Hand held, 90% of full frame, one shot.

Nice story telling image with a great backdrop for the surfer.  Always awe inspiring to be surrounded by such beauty.  Think this image would sell well.

Hi Mike,

Very rich colors with some interesting deep shadows. The sky, surfer dude, trees, and water are nice elements in the image.................Jim

Love the sunset colors here, Mike.  The surfer hauling out makes this a great story.

lovely color and the surfer adds a lot. I wish he was off Centre though. Also the big black boulder (?) distracts a little.
