These photos will conclude my ‘series’ about LA.  

The image shows a serene beach scene at sunset. The sun is low on the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow over the water and the sandy shore. There are a few people in the water and one person standing on the wet sand, enjoying the tranquil moment. The sky is clear with a gradient of colors from orange to blue as the day transitions into evening.
