I took this photo while walking at the beach, on the pier with my family. The waves were crashing, the sun was setting, and the sky was beautiful. I thought about how grateful I am to live so close to one of the most beautiful places in California. Every time I go to the beach it feels like an adventure. Hearing the waves crash and the smell of the salty air, with the vibrant red and orange colors as the sun is setting, are mesmerizing. I always make amazing memories, and photography allows me to capture those moments and look back at them.
