The spacecraft hovered over the... erm... I mean..A swirling vortex of clouds moved in and was off the right side of the frame in about 5 minutes! When I saw this in my RAW editor, it just didn't seem possible. So in order to process it accurately, I had to look at it in the back of my camera. No HDR!

And then light came through the 'eye' of this cyclonic thing. I felt like I was wintessing an historical event rather than just a nice sunset. The colors remained rather subdued but the drama was incredible. I made sure to get the sand at it's most reflective moment. It was high tide so it dried up in just a few seconds. Timing was everything. So I had to keep running around and planting the tripod in the wettest sand just after a wave would hit a particular spot. I'm glad nobody was watching because they would probably think; "This guy just can't seem to make up his mind!" The map shows exactly where this is.
