Havent been able to shoot that much in, perhaps years.  Not only was a pushing buttons but also exploring places I hadn&#8217;t been yet in California, then Central Coast. Even with all my trips I had not made it down to that part of the world.  Needless to say I will be returning.  Incredible seascapes, rolling hills, incredible Oak trees&#8230;dunes (my favorite).  After looking out of the window on one of my many plane trips I noticed an area below that I had to explore.  Didnt know it would take years to get there but we ended up spending 2 separate shoots there over 4 days.  This particular shot was taken on the return trip for sunset.  Which started out VERY windy (and chilly, even though the temperature was 15F higher just a bit inland).  As the sunset the wind subsided and the light turned magic.  In normal aF fashion I was scurrying around as the light dwindled trying to find whatever compositions I could.  I was initially above this dune and then noticed the shape of the shadow and curves leading toward the point in the background. After tweaking the composition 3 times the 4th resulted in this image.  <\/p>\n<p>There will be lots to share from this adventure and please enjoy this surreal place!<\/p>\n<p>aF<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1004\" height=\"685\" src=\"http:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/2017-03-11_412web.jpg\" alt=\"Sunset along Oceano Dunes in Central California\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-743\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/2017-03-11_412web.jpg 1004w, https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/2017-03-11_412web-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/2017-03-11_412web-768x524.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/2017-03-11_412web-700x478.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/2017-03-11_412web-30x20.jpg 30w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1004px) 100vw, 1004px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Untitled Dune \u00a9 2017 (unreleased)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just got back from a 10 day trip to CA&#8230;of which I was able to shoot for 7 of them.
