23 Comments on Sunset Over the Pacific in John Steinbeck Country
Mryl,
Seeing your name at the top of my blog subscription list creates a sense of excitement to see one of your beautiful pictures of God's creation. So beautiful!
I like the contrast of the diagonal shoreline with the waves and horizon. Beautiful colors in both the water and sky.
Mryl....sounds like a great day with the family and that is a great photo .....peace zane
I am sure this picture doesn't do justice as to the actual scene - still most beauitful.
Hi Myrl, I almost made it to Monterey this weekend, but maybe next time, but I love you showing what I missed.
We visited the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago and I think most of Chicago was there but never saw the sun set. Thanks for the photos family outings are fun but like you said can be very exhausting.
Myrl,
In Annapolis here it could be a sunrise shot. Wonderful coloring but I'm very impressed with the composure. The escalating foreground is fantastic.
Rich
Just a beautiful picture, Myrl. The setting sun really makes the picture pop with the wonderfully, darkened foreground of the dune grass.
As always Myrl, I am in awe of the beauty you capture with your camera!
Beautiful Myrl. This is just wonderful photography. I read that you were just returning home from your trip. Welcome Home. I will be in touch early this week. :-)
Hi Myrl - Another beauty! I'll have to get back down to the lagoon and snap a few more of those sunsets.
Hi Myrl,
Another beautiful photo and, yes, I had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Mind you, I caught a cold in Winsconcin..........guess I'm not used to that sort of weather after living in Texas for the last couple of years. LOL.
Hope you had a wonderful time too.
Steve
You need to add that picture to one of the Photography groups here in the Rain. Simply beautiful.
Hi Myrl:
WOW....
This has to be one of the most prettiest photos!
Just beautiful.
A stunning photo Myrl! EXCELLENT composition - I read every one of Steinbeck's books years ago - may be time to revisit them :)
Debi
John - Thank you for your kind words! I'm hopeful your family had a great holiday as well!
Lee and Carol - Because I live inland, I always feel lucky to see a sunset like this one over the Pacific.
Pat - It really was a wonderful three days.
Sara - Thank you so much for your kind words. . .I'm glad you enjoy the pictures.
John - The diagonal "shoreline" is actually dunes that have various grasses and greenery growing on them. I thought it was interesting to find them that way.
Zane - It was a wonderful time, there's no doubt about that!
Steve - You have hit on one of my great frustrations in life. I never feel like I have fully captured in picture what I actually saw!
Gary - Where were you at? Monterey would have been a long long way from Texas:-)
Terrie - I continually kept saying to myself as the exhaustion set in, "Gal, you aren't as young as you use to be". . .:-)
Rich - The escallating foreground was caused by the sand dunes with growing grasses and pampas. It really was lucky finding that scene.
Sharon - It was a perfect scene, at the perfect moment just before the sun dunked on the horizon.
Paul - You always have the nicest things to say. . .I'm glad you enjoy the photos.
William - Yes, I have returned to the land of the living in Sacramento! I crashed and burned shortly after arriving home, but seem to be back to normal now:-)
John - When I was snapping that picture I was thinking of you, and how fortunate you are to live where you do! Like I have said before, life for you is a beach!
Steve - I hope your cold is better. My daughter was suffering a cold while we were gone, but seemed to be on the mend by the second day or so!
Craig - My camera is a point and shoot Canon 200 IS. I don't think I'm ready to run with the big dogs quite yet! I have posted it in the "Photos" and the "ActiveRain Photo Blogger" groups though.
Toula - I'm glad you like it!
Debi - Every once in awhile the gods conspire to put me in a place that makes capturing a bad picture nearly impossible. . .This was one of those times.
Myrl, That picture is stunning. I've been in Monterey and I was able to watch a sunset in Carmel. It had to have been the nicest I've ever seen anywhere!
Carole - There are some really wonderful sunsets along the California Coast. But, I must admit the most gorgeous sunset I have ever witnessed was at Kona Hawaii. . .and I didn't have a camera with me!
Myrl,
Very nicely done. The sun is centered horizontally in the picture and thew water and land help to frame it. :)
Steve
Myrl it sounds like you had a beautiful Thanksgiving weekend, one filled with wonderful memories. And what a gorgeous shot to finish it off with.
