[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
New Brighton pier (Christchurch, South Island), VERY early one morning last Winter. Bitterly cold, could barely hold the camera let alone aim and shoot but tenacity prevailed. The day unfolded to be a cracker. Plenty of sunshine, hardly a breeze, temperature rose (a little), oh...and it was the weekend! TFV.

Bonjour Martyn,
Très bel effet graphique. Le mouvement des nuages est superbe, avec les oiseaux en plein vol en prime.
J'aurai peut-être coupé le petit bout de plage pour n'avoir que la mer.
Bonne journée

That's a Marty Special, great Sunset, colour is amazing

Excellent Martyn. Well composed and beautiful detail. Stunning effect on the water too. TFS,
David

Hi Martyn,

this is wonderful view. I like the dark, saturated pre-sunrise colours. Delicate reflections of the sky in the water make the photo well balance as well as show the pier's shapes. Sleepy and peaceful mood of the scene is nicely broken by passing bird - evidence of coming wake-up time... tfs

Red at night, shepards delight,
Red in morning, shepards warning...

... it almost looks at though the sky is on fire...

Love it, and the pier sits perfectly on the horizon to split the sea and sky!
