Sometimes the individual elements of a picture can be quite ordinary. For example, a picnic table at a secluded private beach, some interesting cloud patterns, soft nothing special sunset, and dusk colors, etc. But the combined effect can be quite striking. 
That was the case when I was at the private beach of my Symphony Isles neighborhood in Apollo Beach, Florida, at the start of last December. It was not even 6 PM yet, but the sun had already set. Dusk was fading in the distance. But the magic of the scene was just coming alive. 
I stood in one spot to take 36 photos with the handheld iPhone 11 Pro Max. I later merged them into this spherical panorama. You can see how the different exposure levels of individual photos lead to some blending issues. For example, one side of a rock or bush is more yellow than the other side of it. But it was still worth doing. 
Of course, there are always some who do not care how great a work of art is being created. They will piss all over the scene. Literally. I mean literally! If you look closely, you will see that my then 10-months old German Shepherd puppy, K2, was caught in one of the frames "watering" one of the palm trees. We may not win a photography contest but maybe he can win a pissing contest. LOL.
All kidding aside, the idea is to share with you the magical moment, for you to savor with me, as if you were right next to me, maybe preparing to unpack a light picnic dinner by the seaside at sunset. Come back soon!
