The Perfect Storm of Color & Light

I raced to the beach for sunset, and it was definitely worth it! "A Perfect Storm of Color and Light" - 7.31.2023.- Indian Shores, Florida (No filters used, not even an ND filter. Captured in manual mode, live composition, photo quality set to Vivid and White Balance was unknowingly set at Incandescent, which created the gorgeous purple hues.)
