Sunset at Wharariki beach
So I decided to spend a bit of time exploring the beach, looking for interesting compositions. I quite liked this one, with the herbs framing the islands, so I decided to settle there and wait for the conditions to become a bit better. Enjoying some wine while the 60km/h wind gently blasted sand in my eyes...
After a while, the wind set and the sun was low enough to create some nice shadows in the sand and I started to shoot. The picture I prefer of that session is this one, when the sun sets behind the clouds, creating a faded sun burst.

entry description
This beach had been on my radar for quite a while. The place is well known in the photography community for its reflections and amazing looking arches islands. Unfortunately, when I arrived at the beach, the sun was high in the sky and I couldn't see any clouds... Not the ideal situation for some good pictures!So I decided to spend a bit of time exploring the beach, looking for interesting compositions.
