  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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!

Every year thousands of photographers flock down to Pfeiffer Beach in Big Sur to photograph light beams through the Pfeiffer Arch (some people call it Keyhole Arch?). During December, January, and a bit into Februray the sun sets at just the right angle that its rays will streak through the hole in the rock. As the sun nears the horizon the light takes an orange hue and water droplets in the air will reflect the lights orange color. 

My buddy Andy moved up here a couple months ago and has used his new proximity to me as an excuse to get more into photography. He had seen my photo "Spotlight" from last year and demanded that we go down to Pfeiffer this year. Between busy schedules and poor weather/tide conditions it took us until late January to get down. We played hooky with a work, left around 1pm and made our way down the Big Sur coast. It was a beautiful afternoon and we were pretty excited!

When we arrived at Pfeiffer we quickly noted how calm the water was. The tide was fairly high, about 3.2ft before sunset, and was supposed to only drop to 3ft by sunset. It seemed a bit high. Without the huge surf there wasn't much splash or spray and the light beam never materialized like it did for me last year. None-the-less I took a number of photos and left feeling somewhat disappointed. It wasn't until I got home that I realized I had captured a few nice shots! I especially liked this one because wispy strands of water picked up the setting sun, making it look like it was almost molten!
