San Simeon, California / May 16, 2019 by John Lazo

Last Sunday I drove up to San Simeon, California for sunset and stopped at a pullout along the PCH a little south of Hearst Castle. I was excited to get a colorful sunset since the last four or five times I’d gone out to photograph had been incredibly overcast.

Anyway, here’s a few of my favorite images from the evening. They were all made using a Canon 5D Mark IV and a 16-35mm lens. I used Adobe Lightroom and either Nik Color Efex Pro or OnOne Photo Raw to edit them.

Point Dume, Malibu, California / December 21, 2018 by John Lazo

On Tuesday morning, a friend and I drove to Point Dume in Malibu, California to photograph the sunrise. We ended up getting some beautiful clouds which filled up nicely as the sun rose above the horizon.

The photos were captured using a Canon 5D Mark IV along with a 16-35mm lens or a 70-200mm lens.

I finally got a chance to photograph my first sunset in the San Luis Obispo area. This was one of the most spectacular sunset I’ve ever seen. Minutes before, it was a relatively cloudy evening with mediocre color. Quickly, the sky lit up with beautiful blues, pinks, and oranges. It’s a sunset I won’t forget.
