Headed down to Redhead beach for sunrise this morning. I Found this composition more appealing with the soft tones around the setting moon then the sunrise. Had to get a little wet to get out behind these rocks.

Managed to get up at 4:30am this morning in readiness for the 45 minute drive to Redhead Beach for sunrise (first light at 5:30am)!!
I took this just as the sun broke through the clouds sitting on the horizon.
Hope you all are having a great weekend - thanks for any comment, viewing or favorite to this or any of my other images - much appreciated!!
One from a few weeks ago.
I took this on a sunrise shoot with friend and fellow flickr photographer Paul Hollins at Redhead Beach NSW; Australia.
We were skeptical about the conditions during the 40 minute drive here as it was quite overcast.
Conditions appeared to take a turn for the worst when it started drizzling as we arrived at the beach.
There is a large modern surf clubhouse building that separates the carpark from the beach, and it wasn't until we walked around the corner of the building that we saw the beautiful colors starting to show through the sky!
Here you can see the old wooden shark tower that is no longer usable due to health and safety concerns, did you spot the bird sitting up there?
It's probably admiring the lovely light and color too!! :-)
Hope you're having a great week, and hope the weekend is even better -thanks for looking, commenting and making favorites of this or any of my other images!!
The sandstone rocks at Redhead Beach reveal their colours in the early morning sun.
Have a great weekend everyone and thanks for any views, favourites or comments.

The lighter than expected head confused me for a while but it appears that this Redhead female just had not yet gotten her full breading plumage ...

The afternoon light and sky was quite nice for a quick visit to Redhead Beach.
Processed in Machinery HDR Effects to emphasise the details in the sand and sky.
This shot was taken earlier in the year when we were in the southern US. We have had 100's of them on the St Lawrence River near home during the last month. They stay for a few days resting and feeding getting ready for the next leg of their migration. Although there are lots we certainly don't get this close to them here.
I went down to Redhead beach on Sunday morning before our bodyboard comp to catch the sunrise!!! It was an amazing day of cloud that was well worth the 4am start :-) www.facebook.com/FunktaculaFotography

Athya type ducks have many similar forms. These are two Redhead males, seen in Rockport, Aransas, Texas.
I loved the light this particular morning. It's too bad there was a little bit of wind otherwise the reflections would have been sublime. Instead I really enjoyed how the sun's rays drenched the water of the Humber Bay pond in golden light!
There was some scattered corn laying on the thin sheet of ice near the shore. The Mallards could easily walk on top to eat it but the Redheads were too heavy. They tried a number of times to walk up onto the ice. A few times they could walk a few feet but they would always break through. I wouldn't have thought they were heavier than Mallards. I looked up their weights and they both are listed around two pounds.
I think this is shot with a Kodak DCS pro slr/c, a fullframe DSLR from 2004 without a highpass filter. An amazing gear in the studio when shooting with high power flash at f-stop 16 but terrible when used with available light.
With warmer weather, our winter Ducks have been moving north. Went to see what was still around and lucked out with this pair. Chicago 03/09/15
