From the coastal shores of Muriwai Beach near Auckland, New Zealand, a beautiful sunset highlights the sky over the Tasman Sea with the sun showing off its beauty in a large, yellow/whitish ball shape across the horizon. The lighting from the sun spans across the surface of the water and highlights a few Australasian Gannets soaring above their nesting grounds at Muriwai Beach.
