Sunset part 1, Mothers Beach Mornington

taken on auto focus minolta AF3-35m
taken 1982

Seagulls are always present in Mornington, so why i love this shot it truely represents the sunset at Mothers Beach, a favourite place of my husband and mine.
my husband lived there all his life until we moved here, and i spent 20 years there.

    Kristina, this is a lovely, lovely photo! Well done for keeping it all these years. Thank you for sharing it with us. At that stage, I was happily building up box after box of 35mm slides, because they were cheaper than prints.
