Pacific Sunset

San Onofre St. Beach, CA

To paraphrase a famous Scot, I had to nip up to Santa Ana today. I left before the sun was up, and I got to Main Street in time to have a frothy coffee at Starbucks. Then I spent the day conducting 360 feedback with 5 different Social Work Directors in the Orange County Child and Family Welfare Section.

I had a tuna sandwich at “Pops” just off Fourth. I kept experiencing that meal all afternoon and don’t recommend the café.

After departing the OC I raced south barely making the Vista Point which is situated just south of the San Onofre Atomic Plant.

This sunset of course caught my eye. Then I nipped home a bit weary from 3 hours (round trip) driving and the immense emotional drain of connecting deeply with five managers.

In many ways I like the picture below better than the sunset, yet I knew the drama of the orange would draw your eye to today’s PESO.

Sunrise and sunset... my two favorite times of the day.
Conditions seem right to see the 'green flash' that day.

Good shots the both of them. Isn't it fun driving to OC for a gig and back again, the same day?

The sunset is very beautiful, but I like the other one better. I love the composition and the reflection. It is a very unique shot.
