Coogee, Dolphin Point

 A view of the Pacific Ocean from Dolphin Point at Coogee, just north of Coogee Beach. On a perfect sunny day last week, I managed to capture a reflection of the railing along the edge of the cliff, in a puddle which was the only evidence of rain on the previous night.

The swedish weather isn´t not like yours on the photo. Your picture is really nice and the reflections.

Julie said...

The reflection looks slightly Japanese. This is a lovely, yet sad and reflective, promontory.

Lee Spangler said...

nice reflection. I didn't know the bridge event was by invitation but I guess that makes sense, otherwise thousands would flock there. Can you swim at the beach there or are there box jellyfish?

J Bar said...

Lee, you can swim at Coogee Beach and most of Sydney's beaches without fear of box jellyfish. They are found in tropical areas, so not as far south as Sydney. We do get other types of jellyfish and blue bottles which sting but are not that dangerous. The occasional shark attack can be dangerous but most beaches are netted and swimmers are advised to swim at patrolled areas.
