Blusher 2......
The early morning wander through the dunes of Rebecca Beach, Temma, West coast Tasmania (Australias island state) revealed this blood red sunrise over Rebecca Lagoon. So ….with little time to really construct an image, one was forced to fire away at the awesome reflection provided.
This coast of Tassy is renowned for classic, vibrant sunrises and sets, so be prepared to get up early, especially at this time of year…..

Dang David! This is sooooo amazing! Those colours are gorgeous and the cloud formation and reflection just sucks you right in! So beautiful :) It looks really cool turned on its side either way as well….a cool abstract type of twist. I know….I am odd, but I am constantly twisting and turning my laptop looking at things from all angles :D But either way, I LOVE this (as I do most of your work!) and it is an instant favourite :)

Ok…..there has been many mornings dragging oneself out of bed for the first peak of sunlight. Not this morning though…...all fogged in.
David Murphy replied
Can’t blame you on that one….fog has a dampener effect, especially when cold, like up there, I suspect!! But, all the same, Garth and i will be heading up there sometime, so get the fog out of the way, please!!
