The wind calmed down this afternoon, so after mowing the lawn, I took off to try my hand at fishing.
As soon as I left the harbor I ran into this bunch of birds diving on fish that were splashing.
I tried a number of tricks, and caught one small bluefish. I suspect it was most small rockfish with a few blues mixed in. If I'd tried a smaller lure, I'd probably have caught some small rockfish too, but since that wasn't the point, I move on.

I tried taking a lot of sunset pictures tonight, with varying success. The setting son shines on a freighter going by out in the shipping channel, about 3 miles out.
I caught one keeper stripped bass, a mere 19 inches long, and a couple of smalls. I lost one fish that might have been bigger.
Sunset getting going better.
Even more...
Sunset as viewed by the "sunset" function of the camera. I don't remember it being quite that intense.
