I had the idea of using the streams of water coming off the beach as leading lines towards a partly cloudy sky lit by the rising sun. However, over the course of 40 minutes around sunrise the cloud dissipated and then reformed without really lighting up as I had hoped.
I don't think this really works at his time of the year, even if the sky really lit up. I need to return when the rising sun is more north-easterly say from the end of May through to mid-July so that the main beach streams and pools are more aligned with where the sun will rise. This means a much earlier start as sunrise will range from 5am to 4.45 at the solstice and back to 5am. At least it should be warmer than it has been of late!
Even though the images were not what I had hoped for, it was good to be out with absolutely no-one else around and just the sound of the waves and the birds for company.
