MacMasters Beach is a special place for many Central Coast locals. (Being a bit off the beaten track, it's not that easy for tourists to find.) I had been working on this shot for months, trying to get the angle of sun, the tides, and the weather to align. I was convinced there was a shot to be had here, so I kept trying and on this magical morning, everything fell into place. Fingers of light piercing the clouds, appear to draw us in as the turmoil of the sea contrasts with the stillness of the heavens reflected in the pool. If you are feeling a little overwhelmed in life, perhaps it is time to hand over the helm to the One in whom there is peace, in the midst of any storm.
