Mangroves at High Tide

Spring has finally started in earnest, with temperatures in the high 20s, bright sunshine and azure skies. Water quality also looks like it has improved noticeably; Moreton Bay now shimmers in a brilliant blue rather than the post-flood muddy brown that persisted for months. So I thought taking pictures of mangroves at high tide, using my new ND400 filter, would be just the thing. This time I remembered the sunblock as well as the hat. Learning from experience etc.

Established mangroves shelter the boardwalk from the sun, and the high tide and light breeze mean attractively-rippled water just waiting to be smoothed out by long exposures. Excellent reflections could be had where pools were sheltered from the breeze. Enjoy!
