Rock Pool, near sunset.

I was cooking tea tonight and had to head into town to buy some ingredients. I decided to have a quick visit to a local beach that is about 5 mins out of town. The sky had cleared and was hosting some beautiful fluffy clouds. I was hoping that the tide was low enough to expose this wonderful rock pool at Cape Paterson beach. The pool is much larger than what is shown here and is a beaut place for kids to swim in the summer.
It was and the situation was pretty much perfect except for a cold but light wind travelling off the ocean. I haven't used this pool as a motif at all in the past and it was looking good. There wasn't enough wind to significantly disturb the water surface and I happily clicked away until sunset. I was considering waiting until after sunset to see what would happen to the sky. Anyway, I hung around as the sun got lower and my ears started to ache with the cold and then my fingers. The sky didn't look all that promising due to a heavy low bank of clouds at the horizon. So came home pretty happy with what I achieved.
Dry feet - wonderful.
