The Making of 'Looking North on a Winter's Day':

The seventh in a series of nineteen waterscape photographs chosen by the developers of Coast Apartments in my home town of Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia. The large black and white prints grace the walls of the foyers, gymnasium and lift on permanent display in the luxury complex.
The series gives the viewer a journey from the Hastings River, that runs through the town and down the coast to The Gap at Diamond Head Beach in the Crowdy Bay National Park.

Enjoy! #1419435

Hi Dennis;
This one reminds me of a portion of the California coast line. I enjoy the rocks in the foreground, the oceans motion and that amazing sky.
