Cape Schanck Sunset Melbourne for Skywatch Friday

 


Down the steep stairway we went, winding our way to the bottom of the cliffs beneath the lighthouse at Cape Schanck. The afternoon was slipping quietly toward evening, and the sea below seemed to hold its breath.

Then the sun began to pour its last light across the horizon—a deep, glowing gold, like a warm brew slowly steeped in the sky. The cliffs darkened into silhouettes, while the water caught the fading light in scattered ribbons of amber. For a little while, everything felt suspended between earth and sea, day and night, washed in the quiet richness of sunset.

  2. Lovely capture of the setting sun and the "lines of light" along the horizon, the sea, and the railings in the foreground...

  5. It is so gorgeous! The orange and blue stripes in the sky, and the beautiful reflection on the water. The railings of the steps have turned into burnt amber.
