Tranquility
Took this on a three day sea kayak trip I did around Wilsons Promontory’s north end in January. On the last night we stayed at the beautiful Tin Mine Cove and witnessed a gorgeous sunset followed by this lovely post sunset glow. At the time I was so busy taking the photo I didn’t actually realize that I was taking a shot of two boats mored side by side and only clicked the next morning after talking to the yachty of the second boat (they had dinner together then mored apart for the night). The island in the background is called Doughboy Island.

This is sooooo beautiful Travis. Sounds like a great trip to do (if you’ve got the arm muscles) :)
Travis Easton replied
If the tide and winds are in your favor its not too hard but on the other hand if your fighting these elements it would come in as one of the most strenuous things I’ve ever done. The rewards are truly sublime however, ta.

What a beautifull shot there Travis,
I love how soft the image looks wt i’s deep purple tone’s.
Is that near Walkerville ?
Travis Easton replied
Walkerville is about 35km away from here and is the other side of Waratah Bay which is the bay to the west of the Prom. Tin Mine Cove borders Corner Inlet and is on the north end of the Prom proper the closest drivable locations being Yanakie Beach or Port Welshpool. Cheers

It is so very beautiful Travis, it is my favourite time of the sunset. After the sun dips below the horizon and the sky and water transforms with the soft pastel highlights. This is a brilliantly composed pano, it is so serene and very beautiful. I love the hues.
