Huntington Beach State Park SC - A Moonlit Night

It was 8 p.m. and dark.  A cloudy night with just a clear ring around the half moon.  We were walking along the beach and as high waves came in, they bask, momentarily at their height, in the glow of moonlight.  From the shore, it looked like a shiny monster was rising from the sea, and then the waves would swoosh upon the beach.   It was eerie and wonderful all at the same time.  We were alone on this expansive beach to hear the crashing of the waves as they rose to their heights and the soft roll of waves as they came upon the beach.

Near the horizon, we could see the lights of commercial fishing boats heading out to sea.  They looked so small compared to this massive ocean  as they made their way slowly into the dark sea to find their catch.
