Sunsets are pretty compelling scenes, and photographers just love all those colors.

You stand there looking up and out…to the limitless reaches of the sky, the horizon…all that power and majesty.

And when it occurs over the ocean, there’s such an amazing added dimension…or two…or three.

The water that laps at your feet is the same water that stretches toward the sun, and stretches to either side…and it goes forever.

The waves keep coming…from somewhere.

The sound of the surf adds more of that power.

The reflections on the water, on the sand, on the rocks.
