The SS Dicky wreck is a local icon here on the Sunshine Coast, Qld and a subject that is often photographed. This was taken a couple of weeks ago at sunrise.

Neil, This is really nice!! Like it alot. I like how the sand leads you right in to the ship. The water motion looks fantastic and that is one awesome sky. The panoramic format worked great too. Really well done. Cheers

Wonderful light Neil. The wave action adds a dynamic element that focuses the viewer through the wreck to the beautiful sunrise.

The old bones of the wreck are a nice lead in to the scene and the beautiful sky is icing on the cake.

Very cool perspective with wonderful clouds to compliment, your timing and getting up early really paid off, well done.

Nice Vs with the hull remnant and the waves to channel the view, along with the illuminated rain. The sky in the upper left seems a little green though.

Extremely well composed, Neil. The wreck draws in the eye immediately and then you have great techs throughout. Lovely image.
