This is the start of the steep hike down to the beach in Ragged Point, California which is part of the Big Sur coastline. Disclaimer - I've never ventured down the path because I don't want to make the climb back up! #photography #landscape #ocean #EastCoastKin #BlueSkyArtShow

The sun doesn't rise over the ocean in California but we often get colorful morning skies that rival our beautiful beach sunsets. #photography #landscape #eastcoastkin #blueskyartshow

The quiet beauty of the early morning hours on the beach— soft light, gentle waves, a piece of driftwood, and the still reflection of the sky (including the moon) in the pooled water left behind by the receding tide. #photography #landscape #EastCoastKin #BlueSkyArtShow

As the sun dips below the ocean horizon, soft light spills across the rolling beach dunes. The weathered fence posts sit quietly in the foreground — silent witnesses to countless sunsets and salty ocean breezes. #photography #landscape #eastcoastkin #blueskyartshow #sunset

The sunrise painted the horizon with shades of pink, peach, and lavender, perfectly mirrored on the wet sand below. A peaceful reminder of how calming the ocean can be in the early morning hours. #landscape #photography #blueskyartshow #eastcoastkin
