WAITING FOR SUNRISE

Friday, 23rd October.
I woke up early again to go and take some sunrise shots before we changed to Winter time. This time I went to Ta’ Xbiex. Most of the Ta’ Xbiex coastline has been taken for yachting but there is this little area where people can swim. A road passes parallel to and 2 to 3 storeys higher which gives access to beautiful villas facing the entrance of Marsamxett harbour and Valletta. I have been to take sunrise pictures from below the higher road some years ago. This time I decided to take my pictures from this higher road.
This is Valletta before sunrise. Below my position passes the coast road and there is a nice belvedere where one can enjoy the view.
