The Dawning of 2016 by julzmaioro

The Dawning of 2016

As we ( New Zealand ) are to first to see the sun of a new day I thought I would get out a take a shot of the start of 2016.. Had to battle the elements a bit as it was blowing a gale and just starting to rain but I manage to grab a few shots.. This is looking out over the Waikato river ( NZ longest river) and the River Hills.. All the best fellow 365er's for a great year ahead..
Thanks. Great start to a new year.

Brilliant - you have done well to capture the last sunset and the first sunrise so beautifully. Happy New Year to you!

What a neat idea to capture both, I managed the last sunset but didn't wake until 8am so missed the first sunrise!!!

@dide @alinz It was very tempting to not bother with it.. but when a glow started to come on the bedroom wall I thought I had best get up and do it.. clock on camera is 1 hour slow though..

A beautiful dawn breaking Julz. Talked to Brian this morning & he is really ready for rain....dry & windy isn't good! A good downpour is needed! Loved looking at your photos in 2015 & looking forward to more of the same in 2016.
