Sailing the sea of clouds…

Sometimes you can almost drift away and become removed from reality… The light was fleeting and the scene was sublime…

‘ let’s disappear into the sea of clouds ‘

- Nothing wrong with ‘cute’ Andrea 🙂 Though I would normally find a puppy, or pretty woman or similar cute… not a jetty 🙂
  cheers for stopping by again,

Wow, impressive reflection even with the waves. Pretty scene and wonderfully exposed. Starting to get some colour in the trees too it looks like!!..

Nicely done Tony.

- hi Jeremy,
  Those minor ripple are the artefact of a small tinny (aluminium fishing boat) that went past 10minutes earlier. The colour in the trees in the background is from the golden light of sunset on the eucalypts. We don’t have many native deciduous trees over here, with most of our forests being eucalypt dominant.
  
  cheers,
  tone 🙂
