For a few weeks in a year, the setting sun aligns perfectly with this Tafoni sandstone arch to cast a light beam through the portal. When combined with the right tide level and surf, sun rays will light up the splash from the waves making it looks like fireworks. While all of that was happening during the shoot, a bird decided to participate and stood there acting as my instant model. Even though the light show ended early that day when the sun hid behind the incoming marine layer, I definitely had a fun time at the beach shooting this scene.
