Manhattan Beach is a city in southwestern Los Angeles County, California. Beach itself is sandy, spacious and offers great views… There are boardwalk, restaurants, coffee shops, stores, etc. Parking was difficult, after several rounds, found a parking spot near the Pier. Stayed under the Pier over two hours during sunset, enjoyed the pure air and the strong water waves hitting the pillars.

Calmly beautiful lake with unique mineral rock formation. Old, unique, and full of personality… The Tufa is otherworldly, but you need to search to find the best views. This lake is often used as the face of 'wish you were here' postcard, and deservedly so. There are not many places on earth possess such a high level of nature beauty. There is an easy wood board walking trail down to the Lake. Here is the photo of of sunrise, not so many people in the early morning. There was the windy warning that day around the region, not perfect reflection.

Yosemite National Valley Park is in California’s Sierra Nevada mountains. It’s famed for its giant, ancient sequoia trees, and for Tunnel View, the iconic vista of towering Bridalveil Fall and the granite cliffs of El Capitan and Half Dome. There is a Vista point that allows you to appreciate the whole valley. Stayed in this place over 2 hours waiting for sunset, other tourists came, took photos, and left… The light shifted and clouds changed so quickly that the view was always different.

Mobius Arch is located on Movie Flat Road in the heart of the Alabama Hills. There is a small, easy to miss trailhead sign that you can follow for the half-mile to the arch. hiking Mobius Arch Loop Trail was nice. Seeing the arch from this angle is a beautiful view, but if you proceed around to the other side, you can perfectly frame Mt Whitney in the center of the Arch window. The arch window is about six and a half feet high. The sun light was strong. I was a bit regret missing sunset, and sunrise in this amazing place.

Morro Bay, this rock is a fascinating piece of geology, jutting out of the Pacific Ocean like that. Woke up very early in the morning, from dark with stars, to blue hour, then sunrise… There was an overwhelming sense of calm there. About to leave, found interesting patterns of sands, which were shown only with morning light on it! Tried not step on it to destroy these beautiful curves!
