Skywatch Friday: Wellington Point

Wellington Point has to be one of my favourite places for sunset. It was an incredibly windy afternoon which provided the inspiration for some new images. I knew the kite surfers & the windsurfers would be out in force. I wasn't disappointed...



And as the sun set further, the sky took on a red glow due to bushfires on Bribie Island - an island half way between Brisbane & the Sunshine Coast.

Magnificent captures, Liz.
I love the golden hues of the sky and the kite surfers silhouette you captured so perfectly.

magnificent light and color, but sad that the intensity of the sunset was due to the bushfires...
