Point Sur Sunset Silhouette
Location Origin Story
Point Sur is a large volcanic dome sitting on the coastal edge overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Atop the dome, at 361 feet above the surf is the only complete turn-of-the-century lighthouse station built in the 1880s to protect shipping from running aground on the jagged rocks that lie underwater all along the coastline.
This view of the dome and lighthouse structures are beautifully silhouetted against the sun setting directly on the opposite side of the volcanic dome, while cirrocumulus clouds are colored by the alpenglow on cloud layers at different heights.
About This Photograph
This glorious colorful scene was photographed at sunset during the month of May while Zedekiah was hiking along the coast in Big Sur, California.
Image Rarity
The image is taken on the ground in a place others can hike to, meaning it is not that difficult for others to take a similar photograph.
Timing in waiting for the clouds to move into position at exactly the right moment played a critical role in composing this image.
The rarity of this image comes from the composition of the clouds and the alpenglow effect of the sunsprite.
