I got up at 5:30 this morning, which for me is completely ridiculous. We've been getting foggy mornings recently, so I made sure things were clear before I left. As I drove over the harbour bridge, it got foggy as hell and I thought the early rise was going to be a waste of time.
After I stopped swearing I decided to carry on anyway and see if I could salvage something. Luckily as I got closer to the beach the fog cleared and I managed to get a few decent shots.
This was taken with my 10-stop ND filter with an exposure time of 35 seconds.
zoom in tight, and 210 other people added this photo to their favorites.

Chris, is that a boat on the left hand side near the shore? Is that a light house behind it? Wow.

Spectacular. Rangitoto is so iconic, and your photo really shows it! I should be seeing it again before a week is out!
