San Simeon, California
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.
Morro Rock, Morro Bay, California
On Tuesday evening, I met a friend at Morro Rock in Morro Bay, California and we photographed the sunset. It was a bit cloudy, but we still got some nice color as well as some unique clouds.
All the images were created using a Canon 5D Mark IV along with a 16-35mm lens. They were edited in Adobe Lightroom and then processed with either Nik Color Efex Pro or OnOne Photo Raw.

Here’s some of my favorite pictures from the excursion.
San Francisco, California
During the course of the three-day weekend for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, I went to San Francisco, California with two friends. We photographed the Golden Gate Bridge, downtown San Francisco, and the East side of San Francisco. It was an awesome experience!

Woolsey Fire, Malibu, California
Last week I drove to Malibu, California at sunset to photograph some of destruction of the recent Woolsey Fire in Southern California. The fire burned to the coast. I started photographing along the PCH until I stumbled upon a small community of houses where I came across several houses that got burned down. It was an incredible experience that makes you consider all the things it’s easy to take for granted.
All the photographs were taken with a Canon 7D Mark II along with a 24-70mm lens. The photos were predominantly edited using Adobe Lightroom in combination with Nik Color Efex Pro.

Montaña de Oro State Park, Los Osos, California
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.
