This post is for the #wednesdaywalk challenge and the #makemesmile challenge collaboration. This collaboration initially took place once a month, but due to its popularity, @tattoodjay (of the #wednesdaywalk) and @elizacheng (of #makemesmile) decided to make it a weekly thing.
If you want to know more about the rules, visit this week's post by @tattoodjay where you will find all the rules at the bottom of his post after you've enjoyed his beautiful photos from his walk.
Over the past two weeks I shared some photos I took on the beach in Umhlanga. The first post was during the blue hour, just before sunrise. Last week's post was during sunrise. Today I will finish this series with some shots I took just after sunrise.
Let's start with some pools between the rocks, reflecting the bright yellow colour of the early morning sun.
The rising sun...with a rocky scene in the foreground.
Although it was still early morning hours, the life guards were on duty and they have already patrolled the beach on their quad-bike.
I don't know if you would see it the same way, but when we spotted this rock, both my wife and I felt that it made us think of a lion lying down, also admiring the sunrise.
I'll end today's post with some shots of the Whalebone Pier...
First, from a distance, looking at the pier over a rocky area, with the bright early-morning sun shining from the east.
Coming a little closer, with the pier reaching out over the surf and some people on the pier enjoying the sunrise.
And, in the last two photos, trying to capture the reflection of the rising sun on the water from below the pier, but without getting the bright sun directly into my lens.
And that's it for today, folks.
Thank you for reading my post! I do appreciate it!
