Last night, was planning on going to Piha, but at the last minute, drove to Muriwai instead, and met my cousin and her friends.
We took a short stroll down the beach, and then went back along. The sunset disappeared behind clouds on the horizon, so there was nothing spectacular. 
I only had my 17-40 and a 400mm prime.
My 70-300 is in for repairs, and I could have desperately needed that focal length, for getting a shot of the clouds, horizon and sun. Couldn't fit them in with 400, and 40 is just too wide.
So here are a few pics.
I'm not happy with them, as the after dark shots, (15-35min after sunset), it was windy (50km/h+), and tripod kept shaking, making blurred and soft pics. So I had to sharpen them a bit, but not the greatest.
There's always a next time.
