Newport Beach Sunsets
Aug 20th, 2010 by jeremy
Having just completed a 12 hour drive and arriving on the beach with camera in hand, I was like a kid unleashed on a candy store with too many choices. I took a lot of “snapshots” but it was fun getting out and shooting for fun, which I haven’t really done in awhile. I grew up around water and coastal options, so living inland leaves me wanting to get out and enjoy a beach periodically, so the family vacations that include a beach tend to be my favorite!
After taking a few snaps of the sunset on the beach we were headed to the car and I decided I need to run over to the palm trees and capture this vantage point. Something just cool about silhouettes, even if it isn’t a perfect picture.
All of these photos were taken handheld as I bounced around the beach trying to also watch kids and with a very patient wife that knew I was just itching to get out with my camera 
Jeremy,
Thanks for the gorgeous shots. I, too, now live inland, but spent many years in southern California enjoying, and probably taking these types of scenes for granted while I lived there.
Sigh…….
Thanks again for sharing!
