Steady rain all day. The precipitation let up just around sunset time allowing this exquisite photo.

Click on the picture to see the high resolution version. The Malibu Pier can be seen on the right.

Just behind the pier you could see the infamous Surfrider Beach with its smooth breaking waves.

And directly behind the final bluff far away is Zuma Beach, one of the cleanest summer beaches.

I personally love the shadow on the water, created by the clouds, smack dab in the middle.
