.....It's a good bit of advice. No matter how dark it can get, sometimes you just have to wait for the dawn to be able to seize an opportunity.
This one was a real gift. I was so happy to be able to experience this scene, which was a little surreal as I walked around the rocks at Terrigal Haven to see this amazing glow permeating from the sky. I must say the bright yellow strip along the horizon looked quite bizarre and maybe a little out of place, but maybe not as bizarre as me frantically trying to set up and shoot before the intensity disappeared (I wasn't going to miss this one!). The whole scene just went together - the sky, the reflection and the natural vignette that had unfolded in front of me.
This was actually plan B of my shoot on this day, because I had originally wanted to shoot around the Terrigal Beach rock pool, but there is an annoying floodlight shining nearby there that really plays games with the lighting.
The other nice feature of this image is the special aligning of Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter, in the centre of frame in the sky. Very cool! Even though I could only make out 3 planets? But they tell me there is a forth there somewhere.
