Fighting erosion from the ocean, this rock stands tall in its way at a place named "Sunset Cliffs" that,as you can see, lives up to its name as much as any I have ever seen.

Beautiful sky colors and what a lovely location. Needs a little more sharpening and cropping it from the left would have made this photograph really strong in composition!
This is beautiful, the composition is great! I love the foreground elements
that lead you throughout the frame. I like the transitioning of the sky from the sunset/sunrise color to the normal subtile blues on the left it is so dramatic. I also realy like the transition of the color reflecting in the water on the one side of the monolith to not on the other side. It really gives a feeling of peacefulness.
The detail on the monolith is nice. Is this HDR perhaps as I believe there is moredetail within the shadows for the positioning of the sun. Either way. Wonderful job.
I expect to see this in the Top 10 at the end of the challenge.
