Carmel Beach, taken near the entrance at the end of Carmel's main street. There was more flotsam on the beach than usual due to the storms of the previous day. John's head eclipses the sunset. His hair is done by his cousin, in case you were wondering.
I think to get really good wave shots, you have to take dozens of pictures and hope a few get snapped at the right moment. That's why I need a good digital camera. This picture came out OK. This was another attempted wave shot, not as successful. The point in the background is nice.
There were a lot of dogs playing in the water; though you can't really tell, this is a shot of a yellow Lab that kept going in after a tennis ball. I was attempting to get the curve of a wave on this shot; the glare of the sun blocks that out, but it's an interesting picture anyway.
After we walked to the far end of the beach, we saw the sun glaring off the windows of a house. You can also see the kelp beds and some nice patterns in the water. After sunset, the colors are just amazing. Life imitates art.
This was taken as we were walking back, about a minute after the sun went behind the offshore clouds.
