Paradise (part 2 - the harbor)

Dana Point Harbor is one of my favorite places for taking photos. Just before sunset and very early morning are of course the best time for that. This first photo is the Dana Point Yacht Club just before sunset. I love the way the water and the almost night sky are the same color.

This is a training ship used by the Ocean Institute at the Harbor. One day I will get aboard and take some up close photos of the gear.

There is always something passing by in the protected area before getting out the the open ocean. Kayaking is very popular right now. Notice the "audience" on the rocks.
