Surfing sunset, Sydney - a photo on Flickriver

            Tonight in Sydney.
Saturday, 14th October, 2023.

Taken about three hours ago at Shelly Beach, near Manly.
Northern end of the Shelly Beach Walking Track.

So I finished work earlier than expected today, and I thought, instead of going into the city to get more Darling Harbour pictures, I would instead stroll over to the beach and see what was happening at Manly.

Shelly Beach (next to Manly) is about 40 minutes drive from the Hills District - so not too bad. It is about the same as going into the city. AND, by miracle, there was a lot of parking on the headland up above the beach. And, even better, after 7.00pm it is FREE. And I arrived at 6.50pm, so it was very fortuitous. 

AND, whilst I was sitting on the rocks, beside the surf, taking the sunset pictures, these amazing young women suddenly turned up out of nowhere! They were backpackers from France and they all love photography.
They post on Instagram but I introduced them to Flickr, and they downloaded the Flickr app at the beach. I also told them about Pyrmont Point (that I only recently discovered), and they will check it out to get photos of Sydney harbour and the Jones Bay Wharf, etc. And I must say, I really like French accents. Superb (that's a French word, lol)

My Canon EOS 5D Mk IV with the Canon EF 16-35mm f/4L lens.
