The 'witching' hour.....!

Yup, it's that time that we all love, just before day turns to night...Sorrento Quay  has got to be one of my favourite places to eat, drink and take photo's ..and to think if the 'nay sayers' had had their way, it wouldn't exist. When I think how beautiful it is and how much revenue in tourism and  pleasure to the locals (moi!) it's brought to Perth, that would have been a crying shame! Countdown to the weekend, happy Friday.....

  1. Oh boy, this is superb. My favorite kind of photo with my favorite subjects...evening when the blue of the day meets the blue of the night; fantastic sunset; sailboats; water...frame it and hang it!

  2. Lovely sky and exceptional blues & violets! Just spendid.
    PS - on night photo shots -- I do use a tripod & a self-timer for last week's photo (misplaced my remote shutter release!). And I did adjust the focus thingy during day to make sure manual focus is OK...but I still cannot get crisp night photos. MUST be the camera. ;)

  11. Tu as raison, Gracie! C'est la meilleure heure. Pour le plaisir des yeux, et aussi parce que c'est l'heure de l'apéritif et d'une belle soirée en perspective!
