ChristopherJAshdown > SpikeyBridge, Swansea, Tasmania    The last morning before heading home I awoke at 4:30am to be sea-side 1/2 hour later.  My mate had convinced me not to waste the opportunity sleeping in (still not sure it would have been wasted? but up I got anyway, craving a cup of coffee).  We were heading out to the local lookout spot near Swansea, no shops open - no coffee in hand - optimism was low.  Making our way down to the rocks, night still black, we scouted out our positions and setup.  Shaking by the tripod, blowing warm air into my hands, still craving that coffee for 40min when suddenly the sky transitioned from pink to lining the clouds with a magnificent golden fringe.  Despite the longest sunrise I have experienced, it was all over with a 1/3sec exposure to make this seascape vista, capturing a fond memory of Tasmania's East Coast.
ChristopherJAshdown > Broken Jetty  I walked the length of beach around from 'The Nobies' to waste a little time before sunset.  I had a planned shot around the corner, but had a few hours before dusk.  The sun still high and harsh, photo opportunities were proving very slim.  I shot this jetty out of boredom anyhow, with the birds perched on top of the pillars and the tide making it's way in rapidly, I didn't have much time.  I must have set the tripod up with levels way off center for the curve on the horizon to show.  Somehow I think it makes the shot work?  7 vertical shots stitched.
