In complete contrast to the preceding post, the relevant water is saline rather than “fresh”, and it is neither tannin-darkened, turbulent/fast-flowing, nor shaded by an overcast sky.
At 5.19 pm on the first day of April in 2022, one of our favourite Australian coastal locations was basking in “golden hour” sunlight.

The “14B” image involved the same telephoto lens as did “14A”.
Here, however the focal point is very much closer – water’s edge, just in front of me.

Sometimes, when revisiting a long-favourite place, I intentionally limit my photographic options.
90 kilometres south of Adelaide, Second Valley is one such place – a geologically extraordinary and very beautiful coastal location on the eastern edge of the Fleurieu Peninsula.
If you have never been there, I suggest you now have a look at this December 2017 post; it will – virtually, at least – give you a “good look around”, and convey a sense of how some aspects of Second Valley are very old, whilst others are surprisingly young.
On the first day of April 2022, I opted to use a long telephoto lens, only.
Accordingly, even this post’s “landscape view” embraces just a very small portion of what a pair of naked human eyes would see when gazing at Second Valley’s sea cliffs.
