  • Camera in the same location as in the last photo.  You can see that the sun is starting to cast onto some of the distant clouds.
  • Still the same place.  Magical time of day.
  • Moved to a different location.  The sun is now highlighting where the waves are striking.  It (the sun) went behind clouds shortly after this, so the lighting became much less dramatic.
