The Last Sunrise

 of 2015.

Woke early, saw some sun and interesting clouds and went to chase a sunrise.  Being mid year the sun rose further to the right than I'd allowed for and I ended up in a completely different spot to my normal destinations.  The first from Kalorama Lookout and the second from Hamer Arboretum.

Tidal Beach

Tidal Beach, Wilsons Prom, Victoria.

The sun went down much further to the left of where I'd anticipated earlier in the day but this allowed me to use the islands offshore to hide the sun behind.  The clouds were too low to create a really spectacular sky but at least there was some interest up there in the blue.

Thanks to friends for putting us up (or putting up with us) otherwise I would have left before this scene had developed.

The original should print up to 1500mm if I can ever justify the cost...

A - Absolutely nothing

Failed:  At the final hurdle I bombed out, didn't do it, failed.

However I had a damned good day in the annual treasure hunt with good friends, watched a video with the family, watched the Christmas Dr Who special and packed for an overnight trip to Wilsons Prom.

So a project is a project and life is way more important but there are a few images to share.

B - Beetle

Beetles on a blackberry bloom.

Happy Christmas everyone only one more picture to go.

C - Christmas Tree

What else on Christmas eve.  Seasons greetings to all.

D - Dictionary

On numerous occasions during this challenge this very book has been the saviour of my inspiration.  So I pay homage to the Book of Truth...

E - Ear

Ear of grass.  Bit of bokeh from the specular light coming through the bushes in the background.
