This image was taken on a hot, muggy, September evening at Sunset Cliffs Natural Park. I had taken a number of short bursts, and the images were nice. I wanted to try something more contemplative, so I used my 9-stop neutral density filter that allowed me to capture this image over the course of one minute.
Doing so smoothed out the waves, and the reflections looked like mere ghosts or suggestions of the moving clouds above.
Sunset Cliffs was especially busy for a weekday evening, but with the hot weather and incredible clouds during the week, many people were out. Just to my right, about 20 teenagers stood at the edge, contemplating diving into the ocean below (not recommended).
I hope everybody enjoys this image.

As the sun sets and I wait for the best light on the clouds, a couple admires the scene and enjoys the moment.

June 18 Sunset
June 18 Sunset is an image made by T.M. Schultze in Sunset Cliffs Natural Park in San Diego, California. 2 days before the Summer solstice, a heat wave in the Southwest brought high temperatures that kept the onshore flow marine layer at bay. With moisture in the air, this was perfect for high clouds setting up in the evening.
With the moon nearly full, the tide was very high, with a good portion of Ross Rock was underwater. The surf wasn't huge, but with the high tide offered some beautiful wave crashes.

Thanksgiving Surf

Thanksgiving brought huge surf to San Diego. This image was made at sunset at Sunset Cliffs Natural Park in San Diego. The surf dwarfs the size of the surfer who finished their session for the day.

This was literally one of the greatest sunsets of my life. Ross Rock is one of my favorite locations to photograph in San Diego, and I distinctly remember the clouds setting up perfectly, the light beginning to reflect, and the anticipation growing for what was truly an unforgettable experience.
