Sunset over the sea

I was on the Ferry from Redland Bay returning to Macleay Island when the sunset began. Because the ferry was crowded and I was squashed into a corner, I just watched the sky color and other passengers taking photos with their mobiles. Then suddenly the ferry stopped and everyone started looking to the side. ThereContinue reading “Sunset over the Sea”

Sunset Sight at Stradbroke

We walked up to the Sports Ground and down a path to Home Beach to see the sunset. There were beautiful ferns at the entrance to the path looking like another world or something out of Lord of the Rings North beach faces north-north-east toward Shag Rock, 1.5 km offshore. Sand waves change over time,Continue reading “Sunset Sight at Stradbroke”

I made it withContinue reading “Sunset Over the Sea”

Sunset at Russell Island..

It was an interesting sunrise over Ooncooncoon Bay at Russell Island. The rains are around, and the dark storm clouds made shapes and colors in the sky. I sat with a friend and we watched the colors change in the sky as we sipped a cold bubbly as the mosquitoes searched for a delicious drinkContinue reading “Sunset at Russell Island..”
