All of these clouds are keeping the temperatures down, but they sure make for some beautiful sunsets! At least if the clouds are “just right.” What I mean by that is when they are too heavy – all we see is fog/overcast. As you can see in this image of the Newport Harbor entrance area…the clouds were “just right.” The sunset was beautiful and the sun was just low enough to be orange without blowing out the rest of the image. Notice how the sun is backlighting the flowers. If you’ve looked at several of my other shot of the coast, you’ll notice that I got a few “Bird of Paradise” flowers in the image (as I really like to do).
