Great night shot, Julianne... #1158046

What a beautiful image of the Oceanside Pier at night, Julianne! The golden starbursts of the lights leading you down the length of the pier, their glow reflecting down and creating such wonderful luminescent streaks that glisten on the water below. The soft reflection of the pier that lines the beach about to be washed away by the rushing wave coming ashore. A very soothing scene, well captured! #7773005
