Clear Sunset at Wedding Rock - a photo on Flickriver

            Patrick's Point State Park, approximately 30 miles north of Eureka, California, is a beautiful place to take in sunset - when you can see it.

Most of the year this part of the California Coast is covered in marine layer, often not lifting for days on end.  We were fortunate to trek down US 101 at sunset in December, when we couldn't bypass an opportunity to capture the beautiful images of a crystal-clear California coastal sunset.  We were fortunate enough to reach Patrick's Point just as the sun was reaching the horizon and captured some lovely warm tones in the otherwise crisp winter air.

If your travels take you near coastal northern California in the late fall or early spring, I highly recommend a stop at this place for sunset.
