The dawn of 2014, 6:15am January 1st. The year appears calm in it’s arrival.June 7th, 2013. An unremarkable day arrives in a most splendid mannerJune 6th 2013. The day before the day before, up there, above this one. I never get sick of this stuff.The day dawned so awesome, even the seagull stopped to watch. You try getting an inquisitive early morning gull to turn it’s back on you.Peaceful morning in Kawau Bay. Still, the stilts have had enough.The day was going to be rough, possibly. Seagull flies into the shot. I have this exact same image without the seagull. Some prefer it that way.Just orange. Most people lie in bed and miss out on this sort of thing.Duck shooting season started at this very moment in 2013. The duck was probably better off where he was in Kawau Bay.Red Sky in the morning. It was a very nice day though, so there goes that old wives tale, or sailors legend, or something.
