Cloudfall in malibu - Piuma ridge

There’s a reason this place is referred to as Cloudfall. I shot this one during the months when the sun sets further NW so that you can catch it illuminating the fog just before it dips behind the Santa Monica Mountains. This is what gave the scene the golden light. I compressed the fog against some foreground ridges that had some nice fog and light beaming through the trees. I used a fast shutter here to mimic a large powerful waterfall. Not your average scene from Los Angeles County, eh? Nikon D750, Nikkor 70-200, f/14, 1/160 sec, ISO-50
