Sunrise Saturday 17th March Narrabeen-ish

Postby biggerry on Thu Mar 15, 2012 8:43 pm

I have been informed i have to do a sunrise around this area since I need to be the delivery/pickup boy for a online purchase.

Hence, who am I to argue :) So saturday sunrise is about 7am, usual, meet around 6, location is probably gonna be North Narrabeen, tide is high @ 5am so it will still be pretty high, forecast is for clouds and rain - as Surn says, high risk high return ;)

PM or message me if your gonna be there

I'd like to but sat mornings are tricky for me (childrens swimming lessons).

Sundays are better for me generally

No worries. The sun cancelled this morning anyway. :)

Not quite the area, but try Bellbird lookout on Bells Line of Road - potential views all the way to the CBD.

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935.

There are lots, but they are really dependent on the weather. Basically you need a clearish morning immediately after a Southerly. Clearing because you want some clouds (But you already know this eh :wink: ) but you need a Southerly to have blown all the crap you lot breathe out to sea so you get to see the CBD.

Basically any point on the uphill side of a monocline... Kurrajong, Yellowmundi LO, Lapstone, Faulconbridge, Boddington Hill, Blue Mountain (Yes there is one - it overlooks Colin's place) etc etc
