Laguna Beach City Lights
Spring, 2004 Gar Cropser

Laguna Beach City Lights

Laguna Beach

Laguna Beach is world renown for its numerous art galleries, outstanding restaurants, inviting accommodations and, of course, its breathtaking beaches, cliffs, coves, marine sanctuary, and jagged rocks. Although this image of the city appears to be lit by the setting sun, the light on the buildings is actually reflected light from the sky approximately 30 minutes after sunset. My eye was particularly drawn to the reflected light on the water, as well as the warm light bathing the city, which adds to the photo’s overall appeal. Virtually every image captured of this wonderful town is taken in broad sunlight. But, I strove to create an image capturing the alluring qualities of Laguna Beach after sunset. It should be of little surprise that Laguna Beach attracts visitors from around the globe

I lived just north in Newport Beach for many years and this is the best dusk photo I have seen of L:aguna here at Pbase.

This and Winter Sunset are my two favorite photos that I have ever seen of Laguna.
I lived there for many years and you've captured some of the magic of the place.
This picture just grabs me and says Hi Ivan I remember you. The house I lived in is right smack dab in the middle of this picture..

This one is my favorite and when I let my 83 year old mom look at it she started gasping for air and then started pointing out Hotel Laguna and all the other buildings.

Incredible colors. Long exposure. I really love this shot
Thank You
