Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was the wonderful creation at the hands of God. I was on a road trip with a very good friend of mine through the Garden route of South Africa.This particular spot is one of my favored spots on the Garden Route .Its a small holiday spot near Plettenberg Bay as a matter of fact its just on the eastern side of Plett across the Keerbooms River that split the two Holiday spots.The name of this spot is Keerbooms River, and the B&B is called the Singing Kettle. The photo was taken at around 0555 as the sun were rising over the Indian Ocean from the Beach Area close to the B&B. When I am down there I am normally up long before the sun rises and with meditation walks on the beach. Hope this will bring a clear picture to who ever was wondering were this shot was taken in the world.
