Description
Photograph of a nighttime view of the surf at Laguna Beach, ca.1930. The white foam on top of the large waves as they crash into the shore strongly resembles the clouds in the night sky. The pier is visible in the background in silhoutte, the support posts and "A" shaped structure at the end clearly defined. At the right side of the picture, the slope of a hill is visible. At the bottom of the picture, the words "Moonlight S...Beach, California" are faintly visible.
