An Evening at Butterfly Beach - Chapter IV

The sun has retreated behind the clouds... but the sky and ocean continue to glow. I loved the silhouette of the palm trees in the background. At this point, I was getting quite cold and was looking forward to joining my surfboards in the warm car. 

Rock Dancing at Mesa Lane

Temple Silhouettes

Temples and shrines make for pretty awesome sunset silhouettes. Bali life!

Last Light

I took this photo on the day after Christmas in Huntington Beach, CA. The sun had just dipped below the horizon and the sky was glowing an incredible orange color. I definitely miss seeing these sunsets (gotta love how the smog enhances the glow a bit).

A Sunset In the Shadows

I was messing around with double exposures in Photoshop and came across an old image I took in Quebec City. It was late in the afternoon and the sun was at a pretty low angle. Therefore, the buildings facing west were starting to get shadows on their walls. I thought it might be interesting to add a sunset picture into the shadow... kind of two conflicting images: "Old Historical City" vs. "Surf City". Anyways, I think it came out pretty well... interested to hear what others might think.

Palm Tree Silhouettes

The setting sun in Huntington Beach, CA. 3 palm trees line the beach. Love the gradient color of the sky.

Pier Reflections

I'm always glad when a sunset takes place at low tide. It makes any image you take much more interesting because you get really cool reflections from the wet sand. This particular image was taken at Huntington Beach Pier towards the end of the day. The surf was quite good this afternoon... so I almost didn't come out of the water in time to gather my camera. However, the spot I was surfing worked better on high tide and was starting to shut down. Anyways, I thought these were pretty rad images.

Sunset Silhouette Over the Charles

I was riding my bike along the Charles River and saw an incredible sunset. I stopped for a moment to take some pictures. The trees along the river provided a very nice frame.

Dusk at Las Flores

Dusk at Las Flores... long exposure shot just as the sun had gone down. I like how you can see the movement of the clouds as well as the faint colors in the background.

Quiet Sunset on the Charles

A man goes for a stroll along the Charles as the last light shows on the horizon.
