Dawn Colours and Sunrise at Terrigal

Hi all

These photos were taken on the 11th December 2006 at the rocks near the skillion at Terrigal, while waiting for a Mars/Mercury/Jupiter conjunction which I never found.

I took the opportunity for some more sunrise shots, and here they are.

The contrast of the blue sea and orange sky looked magnificent. All but 1 shot was taken with the 350D + 75-300mm kit lens. The other was taken with the 17-70mm Sigma.

Processed in RSP and Photoshop.

Thanks for looking.

Lovely shot's Mike. I'm suprised you weren't able to get the conjunction, that looks like a lovely dawn sky.

OM Gosh.
Up to your usual high standard again I see !
Stunning, especially the one with the wave crashing silhouette against the sun's orb and the one with the beautifully framed rock face (Skillion) on the right and ship in the middle.

Way to go Mike!
