Blue sunrise

Another week in the Riverland and visited the Noora Salt Interception basin three mornings in a row.

Joined by Smarti77 and Dave Hartley and it was only on the last morning that the clouds and rising sun created the beautiful soft colours and shapes in this shot.

Noora is a back water off the River Murray main where the water is heavily salty and dead gum trees from a distant past stand in silent vigil.

This area is located between Berri and Renmark in the Riverland of South Australia.

Canon 400D 17-85 lens with Pro Polarising filter.

My apologies to those of you who I have not been able to visit lately, time now back home will see me catch up I hope!

    what a stunning image…..very haunting too, in the starkness of those branches against the sky…...and the pain of the landscape suffering from salinity….
