Historic trestle bridge in colour…

Happy Australia day everyone ! !

It’s a bit of a gloomy one down this way, so here’s a colourful image that I recently shot to brighten things up.

This composition is only possible around the summer solstice, as only then is the sun rising this far to the SE and thus over the beach in front of the bridge. As we have just come out of a 12 yr drought in the SE of the country this also meant that in recent years when the sun was in the right spot, the creek would be dry. So finally this year the elements aligned and this image became possible again.
