An Early Pier
Saturday, October 4 – Geelong Waterfront
Woke up early, real early, to take a few shots. Seeing as how it’s daylight savings tomorrow, i think this may be the earliest sunrise during the year (5.54am).

An Early Pier belongs to the following groups:
Geelong Throng, Piers and Jetties, SEA, Skyscapes and Sunrise, Sunset Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints, Framed Prints and Posters

This is absolutely stunning. Glorious colours. It almost walks you right into the sunrise.

OMG…..Wow Luka, what an awesome image! Those skies in Geelong are always so magnificent at this time of year!

Wow Luka, this is so totally stunning. The way the colors and atmosphere change as I speed down that pier into the sunrise is so exhilarating. Awesome shot!
Franklin Lindsey
Nice and fiery approach. There is for me always beauty to see a pier going off in the distance towards the sun. Great job!

Lovely work Luka. I love the composition…lovely balance. I like the slits of boats masts on the horizon and the lovely golden tones in the sky. The way the sun is bursting through the clouds is wonderful. The reflections and blues in the water is also pretty dreamy. The pier gives real depth and I like the way it pulls you into the image and causes you to look both left and right. Nice work fella!

I’m so glad you were rewarded by nature for the early start Luka. The difference between the blues and the golden browns is exceptional and I love the way the light’s caught the railing along the jetty.
Magnificent sun rays behind the smallest of clouds and the reflections in the water are superb.
