Finding out that my last post of 2012 – back in November – and my first post of 2013 would be about the same exact place, Aptos, was quite an interesting coincidence.

Sunset in Aptos
Although in January, it was a very nice and warm day, with clear sky, and a beautiful sandy beach washed by a rising tide.

I focused on the sunset this time, which was particularly rich thanks to those distant clouds.

Happy New Year 2013.
