Description
Like last week, I decided to close the week with a sunrise. At the beginning of this past May, you may recall that Lisa and I took a short vacation to St. Augustine, FL. It is a beautiful historic town (one of the oldest in the USA) located just inside the intercoastal waterway. Our first night there we stayed at a hotel on the Atlantic and in the morning walked down to the beach for the sunrise. I was able to take this photo at that time. It was a great start to a wonderful, and much needed, getaway. I'm finally getting to those photos now, and will do a series for you of the various sites and areas of interest we visited in St. Augustine. We didn't get to see everything, ...but I guess that leaves something for next time, right? :o) ----- Thanks for stopping by and for your owlish comments on yesterday's photo, Owl Butterflies. I think we've seen enough butterflies for now, but I'll be sure to revisit these beautiful creatures in the future.

Spectacular capture!
very peaceful...
I see a fence that is buried in the sand to hold the sand from washing away, I guess. A beautiful sunrise and a welcomed sight for us out here since we have been socked in, in heavy overcast these last 5 days. Temperatures are way down to, considering it is Indian Summer. Perfect though to go out and finish photographing a project of mine. Sorry for the novel here. Have a great weekend Kort.
This is what I call a perfect shot! You're a real champion...
Very good shot !
Excellent capture. The ocean and sky seem to always be different - this is very cool image.
Genial capture and sky... what moment !
This is one of those "wish I was there" shots. Just lovely....a beautiful sunrise.
