Beautiful long-exposure photographs show near-empty shorelines with electric swells, starlit skies and the milky way — a reminder of the earth's awesomeness. Here's where to check it out.

San Diego has had its share of bioluminescent events in the last few years, most notably in spring 2020 when a red tide released a potent stench that hung around for months. Despite the smell, the algae was still harmless, Anderson said. We haven't seen a comparable event since, but blue waves were visible again in March 2022. Lokesh, of course, was there to capture those, too.

The San Diego photographer could be considered a"bioluminescence chaser." He got a taste of the natural wonder about four years ago and knew it was an experience he wanted to have over and over again. He connects with other Southern California die-hards on social media, like. Working with his fellow fans, Lokesh tries to figure out where algae blooms will occur and hits San Diego locales to try to capture the glow.

"The plankton are so small, it can’t even be seen by the eye. But it's creating such a beautiful sight to see. It takes you somewhere else in your own heart and memories," Lokesh said. He's one of the few in San Diego County, but would love to see a community of local biolum chasers grow. Instead of hoarding the moment for himself, Lokesh encourages others to experience the phenomenon while they can.

"I think taking a moment to go out and appreciate the beauty that we have in our county, being glad and going out and cherishing it will create memories for a lifetime," he said.But the moment may not last for much longer, Scripps experts say. Lokesh said the ocean's luminosity was starting to diminish on Wednesday. Both suggest anyone who wants to catch a glimpse of the natural occurrence to head to the area north of Scripps Pier.
