It was cloudy all day, however as evening set in, you sensed the sunset was going to be something special. However, I don't think any of us were prepared for the Santa Monica Ferris Wheel to make this truly special.
Here is a 15 minute time-lapse from 6pm (Pacific Time) that shows the magical transformation. (No filters, no editing)
These photos were taken today (Wednesday) near Lifeguard Tower 21.
The Ferris Wheel is located on the Santa Monica Pier and is the world’s only solar-powered Ferris wheel measuring about 26 meters in height.
Malibu is located at the left end of the mountain range.
Mother Nature + Ferris Wheel = Synchronized Sunset?
Nice! Keep spinning that wheel and that reel! ;)
Thanks for the resteem!
Well said my friend!
The ferris wheel seems to be playing off the sunset. the Last photo in so in sync.
Yes. I was surprised I captured that. Some lucky timing.
It's really impressive. I'v been down there and it seems there at night. I'll resteem.
Pretty far away but still catches attention )
yes. thus why I need to purchase a Canon 5D or similar to catch the depth as you do so well.
Nice one man!
Beautiful sunset!
The scenery is so beautiful, when I see your photo, I am very interested in your work, thank you for sharing
Thank you.
Thanks again, it's nice to see you want to reply to my comments
I always read the comments as you never know what you may learn or miss.
I think second one is the best due to reflection. Ferris wheel is also nice detail in the shots!
Thank you! Yes the second one the colors started to kick in.
We have a few more cloudy days in LA this week. Let's get some steemians together and shoot something. Message me...I'll come out to shoot. Maybe some long exposure stuff...
Great idea. I have a few steemians here in SM/VB. I need to get on and set up chat. I am traveling later this week/weekend but will connect.
Wow these sunsets keep getting better and better, like the new addition of the ferris wheel!
Yes the ferris wheel was quite a surprise.
Beautiful pictures dear.
Do you stay in Malibu or are these pictures from a vacation?
Thank you. I live in Santa Monica (Ocean Park area), but visit Malibu often.

The passion that you have - watching sunsets and sharing them with us Steemians is probably one of the most interesting = ) I really love the colors.I would just lay on the beach and watch the sunsets since that is one of the best ways of relaxing your mind and body.
Thank you for contributing to the Steemit Community.Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to your next posts.
