Sunrise at Long Reef

I finally made it back out to the Northern Beaches to catch the sunrise. It’s been a while. And I almost missed it too; I’d quite overlooked the fact that winter is nearly over, and with that, the sun rises much earlier now.

Rushed up to Long Reef beach in the nick of time. The pre-sunrise colors on the high clouds were so intense in camera, that I almost had to de-saturate in post.

Drizzly morning at Long Reef Headland

Checked out Long Reef headland last Sunday. It was my first time there, and perhaps not the most ideal of introductions. The tide was high, obscuring the interesting rock shelfs and rocky trail to the peninsula at the tip, and it was very overcast. Right about the time the sun would have risen, it started to rain.

Nevertheless, I could see the potential – both in photography and taking long pleasant strolls along the beautiful coast lines. Can’t wait to get back!
