Dunes Sunrise
Another from my just finished trip to South Carolina. Access to the dunes was very limited because of Loggerhead turtles nesting in the area. Thanks for leaving a comment! Hope everyone had a great weekend!

I think I like this better than your last post Wayne. The grasses lead nicely into the gorgeous sunset. You were very fortunate to have such great conditions - hope to see some more...

Wayne - I really like this one too - especially the contrast from the bluish sands/grass and the great looking sky. Very nicely done! Thanks for posting this one!

Oops! I guess this would have to be a sunrise if you're in South Carolina :wavey:

Wayne, I thought your first post was okay, but I really like this one! :toast: I really like the moment you've captured here with the sun bursting out around the cloud, and the calm grasses in the foreground. It makes a good opposition IMO, with the tall grass tying the foreground and sky together. Great job.

Must have been a peaceful time. Good looking sunrise.
