El Matador beach cave and Milky Way, Malibu CA

Everything is better inside a cave right? The El Matador cave is a bit harder to access than the Leo Carrillo one as tide really has to be low unless you are willing to get swamp feet. Plus its more of a trek down the beach. This one looks out more South facing and is a great line up for the Milky Way on a clear night. This is quite a big cave too and has a few different lookouts you can shoot from but this is the main view. Came here in the dark so had to shoot a separate foreground exposure for the cave to get any sort of details. Blended it with the standard MW exposure to get this final frame.
