Sharpes Beach and Flat Rock

[digartal]

At dawn, the horizon at Sharpes Beach begins to breathe. A thin blade of gold lifts from the Pacific, softening the dark edges of sea and sky. The tide whispers along the sand, and the first surfers drift like silhouettes against a molten path of light. A lone fisherman wanders in quiet witness as morning gathers strength.

Mobile phone in hand, I follow the coast's curve toward Flat Rock. The air smells of salt and moss. Waves comb the rocks in rhythmic bursts, perfect for camera and time-lapse footage. Gulls wheel overhead. By the time the sun clears the headland, the day feels newly written.

All images and video captured on the mobile phone.

I used the recently shared transition by Dirk1503 on some of the images.

Nice landscape you have there Mark

Being an old (non creative🙄) guy I prefer dissolve transitions, but I recognize I am still in the dark ages

There is no doubt the straight dissolve would work well on this very linear/geometric landscape, especially when an O & A zoom/move is used also.

Thanks for commenting.
