An ear­ly, pre­sun­rise start to the day allowed for lots of won­der­ful views.

Shorty after I arrived at the shore, 6:47 and still anoth­er half hour to see the sun

7:04: Lots more light and less red sky

I liked this view out toward the oil rigs kind of sit­ting atop the high surf

On the return leg now with the sun up and high­light­ing the main life­guard tow­er on the state beach

Amaz­ing and super hardy swim­mer in the ear­ly light

And a quick, dynam­ic 11 sec­onds of my morning
