I was waiting for the clouds to open up and rain on me luckily for this sunrise they didn't! Mona Vale is an amazing beach, there is a beautiful pool just of shore you can swim in and it's an amazing place to grab a #goldenhour stroll or some early morning shots!
Avalon is such a stunning beach! There are so many composition options and if you spend the morning from early there you will definetely see some sights. From this sunrise shoot I saw an amazing saturated sunrise, then some dolphins, then a more demure color flow here. So pretty, you should check it out! #Goldenhour #whatshot #beautiful #Australia
