Walking the line between blue and orange
Ahuriri Estuary, Napier, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
This is a spot I have shot from many times before, but these conditions were just perfect for getting a long exposure of the colourful sunset. This estuary is extremely tidal and this boardwalk is at the highest point of where the tide reaches, so this shot is only possible when the high tide coincides with the sunset.
For those that don't know the area, the sun was setting at about 90° to the direction of this shot, to my left. But all the colour was to my right.
