This is Mangere Mountain, taken from Ambury Regional Park, where I stayed with my sister and great-niece on the weekend. It's a nice time of the year for sunrise images, as you don't have to get out of bed too early! Next month, the camera club subject is minimalistic, so do you think this will fit the subject?
Beautiful photo! The birds are an added bonus. Even better on black. Maybe crop it a little on the left for the theme but I'd leave the evergreen. Super shot.
