Walking on the beach in the evening can be really peaceful. That time that the sun is setting over the land and the moon rising over the sea. Walking along the beach with the water nipping at your heels. Pausing to dig your toes into the sand while gazing out into the ocean. Feeling the wind swirling around. Listening to the waves breaking and hitting the shore. There are handfuls of people around, walking, swimming, enjoying the same surroundings. You can pretty much turn a camera anywhere and get a pretty cool picture of the sky. All of the above is even more pronounced with the possibility of a storm. The gray clouds make for better pictures. They seem to contrast with the sky. The moon shows up a little brighter. The waves are bigger and the wind is a much more powerful force to walk through. It's really quite chaotic when you think about it, but it's pretty peaceful when your there. And pretty cool with the wind.
