Fabulous Thanksgiving Eve Sunset at Platforms Beach

I took these shots last night at “Platforms Beach” at Rio Del Mar in Aptos.  When I look at these photos, it still feels like I am standing there with the cool ocean breeze blowing lightly on my face.

I often ask myself how I got so lucky to live in such a beautiful spot on this big spinning ball.  We are so fortunate to witness scenes like this on many nights and mornings of the year in our area.  A sunset like this makes just about everything okay. This is exactly why I am a sunset-chaser.  

What a nice gift this was, and a perfect time to reflect on all that I am grateful for on the eve before Thanksgiving…
