Burnt orange sunset – Yzerfontein

Sea, Views, , , , Leave a comment
Living in Yzerfontein means I have a blue flag beach within walking distance from my home. During the December holidays it is packed with people, but this shot was taken on 29 May 2012. As winter approaches most of the beachcombers leave and I get to explore the beach by myself. So this is the view that I love: an empty beach at sunset, a receding tide, and just enough light to make the reflections and colour last through the magic of the camera.

The dolphin surfing closest to me made my day by looking up for the camera a split second before committing to the wave on the downward dive. Trying to photograph dolphins in the wild is a thrilling game of point and anticipate, seldom rewarded with anything but fins breaking the surface of the water. This shot was taken at Jeffrey's Bay on 17 July 2015.
