52 in 52: Sunrise 4

Over the next few days I’ll be posting photos of the sunrises I’ve had the pleasure to witness throughout the course of 2011. See a sunrise 5 times was item no. 34 on my 52 things in 52 weeks challenge.

69/365 - Vintage beach

This is quite possibly one of my favourite photos I’ve ever taken. It’s of people I know, and I think the effect really works well. I’m pretty sure I will get this blown up for my dad for Christmas (he’s the one in the middle) as he’s quite a fan of it as well, and it will look great at his house.

On this day we went kayaking in Mooloolaba, the 4 of us working our way out of the beach and into the river mouth for a paddle, before coming back and watching the surf crews training in the morning. Great way to start the day.

94/365 - Sunrise from Picnic Point

Yet another morning out kayaking with my dad (I’m missing doing that now that I haven’t been out there for a few months with him), this time at Picnic Point in Maroochydore. While out with my dad, I learned there was certainly some beautiful waterways around the Sunshine Coast, and that despite the pain of getting up super early, mornings are a beautiful time on the coast.

95/365 - Sunrise over Maroochy River

Another image taken while out kayaking with my dad, this day wasn’t looking too promising. We actually got a bit wet on our way back in as the heavens opened and the rain came pouring down.

Update on my 2009 New Years Resolutions

Every year I make a list of things to accomplish during the year. It’s not resolutions as such, like the usual “eat healthy, lose weight, get a new job” blah blah. It’s a list of things that I’m going to challenge myself to try, to make sure that each year I feel like I’ve actually achieved something. Given that we’re now almost at the end of the 7th month of the year I’m well overdue in an update to my 2009 resolutions.
