emerging brilliance
The rising sun radiates from above Harold Island across the pure silica sands of Whitehaven beach and reflecting in the shallows of the majestic Hill inlet.
Rarely am I compelled to compose a scene with the sun in it…But this time was an exception…The promise of another day in paradise no chance of diminishing amidst the largest and thickest sandfly swarms I have seen anywhere.

thanks Travis ! It’s a purpose yuse camera that you don’t use all that often..But like all new gear though it did take quite some adapting to…so my use has and is still improving..
