Manhattan Beach At Dusk, aka, Southern Section Shout Out!


We slid into Manhattan Beach just moments before the sunset just beyond the Pier...  Wow!  Stunning!  We hope you enjoy these photos as much as we enjoyed the quick trip down to MB earlier today.  Had dinner as well at the new Rockefeller restaurant too!  Shout out to OL Chris Bredesen.  Two Thumbs Up on the Street Tacos, the Ahi Wonton Salad, the White Truffle Macaroni, and the fresh Chocolate Chip Cookie with Vanilla Ice Cream dessert!  Get there early for a choice of tables... because it gets busy and buoyant with conversation and music.  Flat screens with sports too!  But back to the sunset.....

Kettle Cameo...
Lingering Northwest Swell...
Gnarly!...
What time is it?...

Headlights:  The final beach patrol in the vehicle...

Sunday Afternoon Central Section Photo Shoot...

Air temps cooled a bit today but the humidity increased a bit too.  Clouds, blue skies and the Pacific Ocean still and nearly flat... but that didn't stop some 60 plus surfers from sitting it out at the point off Sunset and PCH waiting for the big one.....  we did not carry the telephoto today so you will just have to trust us on that one.
