Pier At Bodega Bay California

This is an image that speaks to me...and what it says is this..."Be an opportunist". I had spent the day photographing Egrets along the shoreline of Bodega Bay. Late in the day I hiked up on the cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean to photograph the sunsetting. Fortunately I had a few interesting shots from the day. On the way back to my RV Campsite I passed by this pier and "voila" the light on Bodega Bay was incredible. The colors in the sky and the reflections of the pier in the water were wonderful.
The whole point of this discussion is "Be an opportunist...scavenger also fits". After the sun has set the light that comes after the sun has gone down may be wonderful so don't put your camera away too soon. Be open to what is around you even if you've had a long day.
This pier image is entirely different than the Scripp's Pier images. It is still a pier and water image but the light and the composition are entirely different...Same subject but different results.
