California Sunsets #13 – Lucky 13

in #photography7 years ago

One of my favorite quotes I have likely used too many times is once again fitting:

“Don’t forget: Beautiful sunsets need cloudy Skies"
-- Paulo Coelho

We’ve been patiently waiting for the rain to stop here, clouds to break and sun to appear and it was worth it. Really needed this to reflect after the past week. These photos were taken today (Sunday) near Lifeguard Tower 24, just south of the Santa Monica Pier.

Love the images, looove the quote! - Thanks @armentor for reminding us that spring should be around the corner ;) We could all use a little natural, California warm air to keep our homes comfortable, this constant heater situation is getting way too "old" !

hanskarr310, we should meet up with armentor one of these days down in SM. DM me next week.

Lets do it! I am traveling but will be back early next week. DM me. On that note, there will be no sunset pictures for awhile.

Its been raining here in VB, which makes for great photos. Maybe we can meet up this weekend. Hit me up.

Yes, let's get together, i will be in town. Looking forward!

Yes. Looking forward to Spring. Unfortunately , the rain just started...

Dear @hanskarr310

I wanted to inform you of an opportunity that #promo-steem has for imageconomy and other major projects on the steem blockchain.

We are the media partners for the London Crypto Currency Show on 14th April. In return for this, we have managed to get our hands on 14,000 usd of promotional access in the form of 2 x hour long presentation seminars and one 4 x 3m exhibition stand.

Instead of using the presentation time and exhibition stand to ourselves we decided to let the major projects and notable steemians use it. So we are giving away talking spots and the opportunity exhibit at our stand for free.

This is quite a big deal since the London Crytpo Currency Show is organised by the London Investors Show, a well-established, long term investing exhibition which brings in crowds of 2,500 experienced investors through its doors at most events. This is therefore an excellent opportunity for the steem blockchain to make a strong mark at one of the premier blockchain events in the UK, and Europe basically for free.

Please see this blog for further details. I hope you are interested in either sending someone from your project to talk at one of the seminars, supporting the event or spreading the word to other major projects or notable steemians. https://steemit.com/promo-steem/@starkerz/exhibition-opportunity-call-to-steem-projects-at-london-crypto-currency-show

I look forward to hearing from you!

Oh.. so happy that in few days I will see this beauty by myself.
Can´t wait :) It will be my first visit of Californiaaaa :))

Hopefully the rains will stop just in time for your visit. The sunset will be waiting for you.

Beautiful sky, clouds are gorgeous on the first photo :)

Yes. One of my favorites ... sometimes one should look behind them when watching the sunset...

I like Beach Volleyball! :-)

3 amazing photos!

“Don’t forget: Beautiful sunsets need cloudy Skies"

You can say this a million times cause it is the truth.
Cloudy skies add a new dimension to the sunset photography. It just feels incomplete without that.
These photographs are stunning, my friend.. great skill

So true. Blessed with sunsets. Thank you @rjunaid12.

Excellent photography during sunset. During sunset nature decorates with fascinating beauty . Really your fascinating photography impressed me. Thank @armentor

Much appreciated. Thank you.

Really beautiful views = ) I get now why you never stop posting sunsets... The place where you are is just magical. You could literally make an exhibition and you'd have hundreds of visitors. Think about it :P

Thank you for contributing to the Steemit Community.Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to your next posts.

Thank you. I have taken photos for years but not seriously. I'm looking to improve and keep providing quality content for steemians!.

Great capture of the palmtree line. sometimes one must look behind them!

So true. I have many photos from behind, usually rainbows. Thank you.

It looks like today's sunset is going to be a good one! More photos?

Well said @armentor. I will resteem again.

eye catching scenes especially beach ball nets in dying sun.lovely observation.

Looks so bright clouds and good photos, do you also wait until the sun sets? You must very much need time to wait for the eye of day
