Coastal Passage +
Big Sur, California
I stood quietly, positioned at the sandy edge where land met sea, eyes fixed on the prominent rock arch that jutted out into the ocean. Time seemed to stretch as the sun dipped closer to the horizon, its warm glow lingering on the water.
The anticipation built as I waited for that fleeting moment when the light would pour through the hole in the rock. With each passing minute, the scene transformed—the waves surged rhythmically, and the foamy crests began to shimmer with hints of orange and pink. As I shifted my weight, the salty breeze wrapped around me, carrying with it the raw energy of the Pacific.
Finally, just as the sun made its last descent, a brilliant beam of light burst through the rock formation, flooding the beach. It ignited the sea foam below, creating a cascade of sparkling droplets that danced in the golden rays. The contrast of the deep blues and radiant oranges painted an ethereal picture. In that moment, the landscape felt alive, and I was humbled to witness nature’s spectacle—a brief but breathtaking display of light and color that would soon fade into the twilight.
