This image was shot at sunrise on Cannon Beach, Oregon.  I had already walked much further down the beach than where this was shot, so I had to quickly run a couple hundred yards back to here to make the best use of such a great geometric design.  The colors lasted only a few minutes.

Nikon F100 with Nikon 17-35mm f/2.8 zoom lens; settings unrecorded; Kodak E100 VS; 2-stop graduated neutral density filter; tripod.
