Description
When I walked out onto the beach and turned west towards the setting sun, I could not believe the quality of light shining down from sky. The Zanac wildfires had turned the sun into the most beautiful golden light I have ever seen and combined with the sea spray created an almost surreal landscape.
It was like walking into one of my dreams, a calming voyeuristic scene just begging to be captured. Frozen in time, these people seemed to be walking in an alternate reality. This, I think, are the moments a photographer dreams about.

beautiful golden light and mood... like it alot!! well done ... fires can sure add a mystical surreal feel ( we et them alot in southern cal!) awesome capture!!
This is wonderful, great job. thanks for sharing
This is absolutely amazing. (It does look like a dream.)
Great atmosphere indeed.
This is intense! You could not even ask for a more opportune shot- I have never seen anything like this... There are so many ways to interpret this- could be a scene from a post-apocalyptic event, or even a scene from a recently terraformed and humid Mars! Whatever interpretation, it is just unique and amazing.
the atmosphere is intense and claustrofobic at the same time! i like a lot this!
a powerful capture in every sense
