Well done- great clouds. The couple of times I’ve shot there, the marine layer didn’t cooperate.

Wow, how long did you wait for the people to get to the right spot for the composition?

You caught this at the right moment. An inspiring picture.

Thanks for all the very kind comments! There were a couple questions about the people in the photo. About 45 minutes before I took this photo I started shooting the sunset. A couple of girls were standing nearby so I asked them if they would mind meandering down the beach so I could have some people in the pictures, which they did. Later another couple who came to shoot the sunset showed up. I'm not sure which couple this is, but as I think about it, it was probably the photographers who lined themselves up for a shot at the sun between the rocks. Mostly, it was serendipity and taking a lot of shots as the sun sank and the clouds moved.

You've got yourself a real winner, Mike. So professional looking. It demands to be enlarged, matted and framed and hung in a VERY PROMINENT place!
