Day 16: Sunrise


Just a quick one in the morning, before we head off for the weekend. Only one entry to upload, but it has to be from a boat, ankering in front of a desert island. Sounds idyllic? It is, but not during a 30 day contest! Luckily the captain (read: father in law) seems to have some way to connect to the web, you'll find out tomorrow!

  4. This is really different from the others. The mist really adds atmosphere to the shot. Hope you have a lovely weekend and I guess my idea of contacting the neighbours to upload your pics aint gonna help! I don't suppose monkeys use the internet. There are monkeys on your desert island aren't there?? Glad to hear that Father in law has the means though - let's hope it works.

  6. The children walking amid a brilliant sunrise with fog rolling in with the mountains in the distance makes for one awesome quickie :)

  7. Oh, bother, I just wrote a whole essay to you and my mouse wheel fancied I wanted to go Back when I wanted to page down. How does that suddenly kick in?
    Anyway, what I said was this is a fantastic shot. The mist and lighting looks awesome and I love the silhouettes of the kids crossing over from the real world and into the surreal world of mist.

    And as to that captain - good on him for permitting you th use of his internet connection. We cannot lose you now at this critical part of the challenge! Where can I organise some of this anchored-off-a-deserted-island-and-still-connected-to-the-internet action? Sounds awesome! Hope we get to see lots of pics of that!

  9. This is a beautiful beach scene, the misty bit in the background is enchanting.
    Hope the dad-in-law can help with uploading the next image, tell him it's VITAL you stay in it.

  11. What an awesome shot. The mist is so thick it conjures images of some sort of post apocalyptic world for me, especially with the isolation you convey with the two solitary people in the frame!

  12. this is such a neat shot! I would have never known that you didn't spend a long time setting this one up and shooting several pictures to get that 'right' one! Well done!
