I took this photo yesterday in a place called Balnarring Beach in Mornington Peninsula, which is about 2 hours drive from Melbourne. Even though I have photographed this location for several times before, I have never been pleased with the results. I decided to go there and give it another chance, and finally, I can say I got the shot that I’m proud of.

Happy Orthodox Easter 🐣 everyone and I hope you like my photo.

Please feel free to share if you like it and don’t forget to like my page or follow me on Instagram to stay tuned for more updates.

Cheers.
