“Sunset” photography can go well beyond the actual setting of the sun over the ocean. Once the sun has vanished below the horizon, dusk may bring magical colors to bear on a scene such as this one. This surfer lies flat on his board, waiting to catch an appropriate wave and ride back to shore. The sun may be gone, but the pink and orange sky still illuminates the texture of the water itself, and throws the waves that thread through the image into relief. The peninsula in the background is the San Diego area known as Point Loma. It lies as flat on the horizon, just as the surfer does on his board.
