This picture was taken at sunset somewhere on California’s Highway One north of San Francisco. It was an ordinary day when my wife and I decided to go for some coffee and a drive. We raced to the coast in order to see the sunset and arrived just in time to capture this magical photo.
I’ve kept the above picture on the desktop of my computer for years to remind me that it’s hard to find magic when you don’t leave the house. Every journey has a beginning and each step toward the horizon so to speak always takes you one step closer to something magical.
Grab a camera, a hot cup of coffee, and then either wake up early for sunrise or arrive in time for sunset at your favorite destination and chronicle a moment of wonder. Sometimes all it takes is just a little effort to find something unexpected and wonderful.
