Description One from the first trip to the West Coast. This evening I had a particular location in mind for sunset, and even though I knew it was high tide not long after sunset, I hadn't checked out how the spot was going to be affected by it. So got there an hour before time only to find the beach already going underwater, with no way to get the angle I wanted. I stayed for a while trying other compositions only to decide with not long to go that I didn't like any of them, so raced off down the beach to try and find another spot. I found these rocks just on sunset and managed to get a few shots off before the light went completely. With the tide coming in I made sure I was able to climb over the left side rocks so that I wasn't gonna go getting stuck I did however nearly get caught off guard by one particularly fast moving wave!
