I love this view of the pier.  There's nothing like first thing in the morning right where you are. 

No great improvements in the lot of mankind are possible
until a great change takes place
in the fundamental constitution of their modes of thought.

    I just took photos of the full month setting. There's something magical about sunsets and sunrises especially on water....

    Softly magnificent. There's music in the light, dancing on the waves, filtering through layered skies.
