California Sunsets #72 ~ Reflections


”Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy.
~~ Guillaume Apollinaire

The gravitational pull of the Moon and Sun are one of the key forces that creates extreme high and low tides. Given the gradual decline of the beaches in Santa Monica (and Venice Beach), the low tides tend to be extreme. Last night’s low tide caused by the full Moon gave some postcard moments.

These photos were taken just South of the Santa Monica Pier location here

These pictures are amazing. I saw some on IG, but the red one is sick! I was with you when you took the Thursday Green pic! A few too many racer 5s...

Thanks my brotha! Yes I posted some of them on IG but I save some for steemit. Yes you were with us and the girls that crazy pier night of the Green Ferris Wheel.

Anna was on a roll that night. We need another pier night with them. Post other pictures from that night!

Beautiful reflections. The full moon was enormous yesterday! Here in Mexico, it looked like a supermoon.

I can imagine. Hopefully you are enjoying some Mescal... cheers!

Haha, just Corona actually - as a Czech, I always go for beer, no matter where I am :)) Cheers!

Beer is always a safe choice as you can actually see the bottle being opened!

I like the reflections from the Ferris wheel @armentor and it is lovely to see from a distance.

Thanks man! That Ferris Wheel provides so many different ways to photograph it. Always beautiful.

Beautiful reflection :)))

Thank you!

Hands down, those clouds littering the sky on your first photo holds a special place in my heart if I have to pick a favorite. Painted in pink, it is not a scent that you are likely to see anytime soon.

To be fair, those other show off the long lines of light and are spectacular. But, you already knew that.

Awesomeness!
