A fireball of a sunset in december on the island of Maui. I love how the shape of the cloud in the sky mimics the swirling of water around the rock in the foreground, and it reminded me of an open shell of a clam. This beach was a short stroll from the resort my wife and I stayed at, and just after I took this we had reservations for a perfect ocean front dinner. I took the shot, actually with my dinner attire on, and then walked back to the restaurant and sat down for dinner. Pretty much the best night ever.

Love how the clouds have a swirl as well as the movement of the water in the foreground. Stunning beauty.
