The sky is a stunning blend of purples, pinks, and oranges, painted by the setting sun. As the sun dips below the horizon, it casts a warm, golden light across the scene, creating a dramatic interplay of light and shadow.

The beach below, with its smooth, wet sand, reflects the sky's colors, adding an ethereal quality to the scene. Scattered rocks and tidal pools catch the sunlight, creating glistening points of interest across the shoreline.

In the distance, a large rock formation juts out from the surf, silhouetted against the glowing sky. The gentle waves of the Atlantic Ocean lap against the shore, their motion captured in a moment of tranquility. The mirrored colors of the sunset in the wet sand enhance the peaceful and reflective atmosphere of the image.
