Little bit of splash off the rocks in the back left

When people come to Pfeiffer Beach to see the light ray through the hole in the arch they don't normally don't realize there's another hole to the left. I went over there first to check it out.

Another shot of the light beam through the other hole at Pfeiffer. The sun is still too high in the sky and doesn't have it's beautiful orange glow yet.

The light beam through the main Pfeiffer Arch (keyhole arch) is pretty visible here

Another view of the light-beam through Pfeiffer. I wanted to get a shot from the left side of the arch this year, since I did the right side last year. Unfortunately there wasn't enough surf and none of the waves were crashing against rocks. It was pretty boring from this side. I also think the tide was too high.

I zoomed out so I could get a view of the entire Pfeiffer Arch with a little bit of light-beam going through it

As the sun dipped lower the light turned more orange and it began to reflect off the water. Here, the light beam isn't really visible, but it is making the water look molten.

Finally I caught a splash of water picking up some of the sunset color!
