Description

Waiting for sunrise, near the Singing Bridge at Tea Gardens. It was actually 35 minutes before the official winter sunrise.
No news from Lithgow, except I couldn’t live there in winter, the max. daytime temp. was 4ºC each day. It was too cold and miserable to go outdoors with the camera.


Exif: F Number: 6.3, Exposure Bias Value: -0.33, ExposureTime: 2/1 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 1000, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 32.00 mm, Model: NIKON D90

A beautiful, colourful pre-sunrise scene & it looks like someone else was enjoying it as well. I agree with your thoughts about Lithgow, we soon learnt to visit there in Spring or Autumn when my uncle owned a hotel there. At least you have the Tea Gardens pictures to look back on=^..^= #1662302
