Fly to the Sun

Daedalus warned his son, “Don’t fly too high or the sun will melt the wax on your wings
and you will fall. Follow me closely. Do not set your own course.”
I'm not quite sure if that is Icarus or Daedalus, but I believe he's not yet in the sun's danger zone.

Terrific capture :)

You're milking that beautiful site (and sight!) for all it's worth! You'll want to meet Osia someday...she photographs amazing sunsets a but further south. This is so gorgeous, and a nice pairing with the Icarus myth!

Another great result of playing with time and light Ron, love the composition, silhouettes and reflection:)

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Love the sun's light on the water!! The silhouettes are fantastic too. And then you go and catch a bird in the perfect place. Great photo, Ron.

Lovely shot Ron

@gilbertwood Thanks, Denise! Got lucky.

[Ron]

@Weezilou Oh, I know Osia for sure. Love her sunset shots. Envious of her ready access to the beach, and more importantly her skills!

[Ron]

@pcoulson Thanks, Peter - went right down the list, composition, silhouettes, reflection. Three in one - thanks for the accounting job. ;-)

[Ron]

@lyndemc Thanks, Denise. Full disclosure: I didn't realize I caught the bird until I started looking at the evening's photos on the computer. Say that and it was a no brainer to choose it for the day's shot!

@terryliv Are you feeling OK, Terry? Way too many complimentary comments from you these days! ;-)
