Dusk from the Breakwater

I am posting a bit early today because we are out tonight and today's evening and night shot was taken from the Breakwater in Nelson Bay at dusk.

I believe the pink band in the sky is called the Girdle of Venus. I just love this time of day as the sun is setting behind where I am taking this shot and the pink glow in front.

I just loved the pair of pelicans standing on the Breakwater watching the boats come in.

@gosia I agree, the pelicans always look hopeful when a boat comes in, just in case they have any fish on board.
