Peephole Sunset

[AlanLichty]

Not all sunsets are colorful along the Olympic Peninsula but if you are patient there are moments with just enough tints and contrasts to make it interesting anyway. In this case there is a tiny peephole of actual sunlight just above the horizon. This is Second Beach near La Push.

A touch of color in the skies at sunset on an overcast day at Second Beach.

C&C always welcome.

I was there once with family and was not able to stay until sunset. Now that I see all these great images from there, I regret that.

 

[Mike Mancil]

The tide patterns more than make up for the lack of color. Well done.

Hey Alan, very nicely composed shot, everything balances really well.

Hey Alan, very nicely composed shot, everything balances really well.

Thanks - I had to be patient for the incoming waves to obliterate all of the PNW III footprints in the foreground so I could shoot this. The rest of you were all off to my left by this point in the evening.

Very nice Al, the receding line on the right matches the near/far, and the clouds and light cooperate nicely. Well seen.

Alan, nice comp. your lines draw you in well, making it a very compelling shot.

 

[Rick Schump]

Nice image Alan, the lines in the shot draw you right in.

 

[Jameel Hyder]

Its actually a nice sunset. Combined with the low tide that allows for a compelling foreground, it makes a print worthy image.
