Blakehurst, marina

This boat was moored on the edge of the marina on Shipwrights Bay, looking out onto the Georges River at sunset on a hot summer's day, in the southern suburb of Blakehurst. To see what it looked like a short while later click here.

  9. A great example showing that it can matter to be at the right place at the right time.

  10. The light changes by the minute when the sun gets close to the horizon. And in truth, it probably changes faster than that. In settings like this, I love to just put the camera on the tripod and hit the shutter about twice a minute. I can feed my SWF posts for weeks that way!
