The pink glow through the blinds confirmed I’d lagged too long and missed a nice sunrise. There was still some nice colour when I arrived down the beach but I think the best was over. Oh well, snooze you lose!

After a brief burst of sun following the pink, the grey set in for the hour I spent shooting. A little karma I guess but hey! I love the grey! Well, not really but it ain’t that bad for digital. In the good old days of shooting slide film, you just didn’t bother unless the sun was out.

If you want a wave today, unlucky! It’s really, really tiny and as the tide fills in it wont be rideable at all. A few guys were giving it a shot this morning. Mostly middle-aged diehards who have to get there pre-work fix to maintain some peace of mind.

That’s the thing about the ocean. It creates sanity from madness…
