Under The Pier ~~
For the 300th post of my 365 project, I am taking you under the Santa Monica Pier. It looks and feels pretty creepy at times, but once you get used to it, it’s possible to appreciate it.

The Sun Rests After a Longer Day —
Today we started Daylight Saving Time in the US. Perhaps because of that, or maybe because it felt like early summer this weekend, there were hordes of people at the Santa Monica Pier waiting to bid farewell to the sun. It was a glorious sunset!

Santa Monica Beach
Today was a beach day in Santa Monica. It was sunny with pleasantly warm temperature (70F or 21C), and although the sea was several degrees colder, people were swimming as if it were high summer. Coming from Northeastern Brazil, where the water temperature is much warmer, I chose to walk around and shoot some photos of the beach, the pier, and of the powerful “Arlington West Memorial,” a temporary memorial installed every Sunday on the beach, next to the pier. The crosses are set up at 6:00am on Sunday mornings – rain or shine – and taken down shortly before sunset. The memorial is a project of Veterans For Peace, and similar ones are installed in Santa Barbara and San Diego, CA.
