Sunrise sequence - Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast

6:33am.

 

One of some 200 sequential shots of this sunrise, from before the sun appeared at the horizon. Shot remotely using a GND filter and the tripod set as low as possible in the sand, with the incoming water rushing around it. That was a little frightening with some of the waves coming in.

 

I had never attempted this before, so I asked one photographer about the best way to manage the process. Her advice was simply 'Get wet'. I sort of managed that bit pretty well, and just kept on shooting!
