28 Feb 2010

Day 59:
Today I finally found some motivation to get outside and take the 'real' camera out. Not sure why I have found it so difficult lately... I think the Olympics might have something to do with it though.  ;-) In keeping with what this year is about, I decided to visit some place new (to me) this afternoon so I drove over to Jennycliff after stopping in at the store for a few bits and pieces. Again, I can't believe that I have never been over here before... it really does make me wonder what I have been doing with my time in since I've been living in this city. Once parked up, I got out of the car and got bundled up as I knew that I would be here for awhile as I had specifically timed my visit to capture the sunset from the beach. After putting on the layers (as the wind was bitterly cold), I headed over to the green area across the road. I got the tripod out and got the camera set up for the right conditions and I turned around and saw a submarine heading into port being escorted by two tugs and another police boat.  WOW... I don't think I could get the lens changed fast enough!  What a treat to see that when I was even expecting to!


I highly recommend clicking on the photo to see the larger image so that the men standing on top of the sub become more distinct.
