Bettye Winters photographed a recent spectacular sunset over Manchester Beach.

Magnificent Sunset at Irish Beach by Bettye Winters (Large)

In the far distance, where the land juts out, is where you would find the beautiful Point Arena Lighthouse.

I love how the pastel colors of the sunset are reflected in the Pacific Ocean. Just lovely...

Thanks to Bettye for allowing me to share her photo with you here.

Martin Steinpress noticed two Great Egrets out on the ocean surface. They were standing on kelp, feeding. It is an amazing sight to see.

Here is a photo of two Great Egrets taken by Bettye Winters. The one of the right has nabbed a fish. Great Egrets have yellow beaks and black legs.

Thanks to Martin and Bettye for allowing me to share their photos with you here. We are having a heat wave here on the Mendonoma Coast today. Being near the water, like these Egrets, would be a good idea for today!

Bettye Winters photographed what looks like two suns setting near Irish Beach.

Yes, we know there is only one sun and that this is some kind of mirage. Possibly a sun pillar was beginning to form. It does make for a lovely sunset photo.

To see sunbeams peaking through storm clouds and shining on the ocean is always a treat. Bettye Winters recently photographed this phenomenon, which some call God's rays.

This doesn't happen very often so it is wonderful to see.

Can you almost hear the sound of this wave hitting the rocks?
