Dragon's Head Rock in Black & White
My support worker and I spent the afternoon driving along the Mornington Peninsula, photographing the colourful bathing boxes that butt up against the sand. Towards sunset, despite the clouds being too moody to capture any sky colours, we drove to Number 16 Beach for my first time ever.
I was not disappointed by the coastline that greeted us. Green covered rock formations, red earth, and a broiling ocean all awaited us. Firstly we explored the famous Lizard Head Rock and the rock pools nearby, then we walked a little further in the opposite direction to this place - Dragon’s Head Rock which is equally famous with photographers.
Apart from two children tobogganing in the far off sand dunes, we were the only two at the beach. It was cold for Spring and had been raining intermittently all day, but the breeze was light and during our visit the rain held off so we were very fortunate.
With moody clouds I knew we were not in for any sort of dazzling sunset light show, so I took some black & white images, along with my usual colour fare and surprised myself with the quality of this image.
As we were heading back to the carpark, another photographer was heading to the rock, unfortunately for him though the cold was setting in as too was the rain. My support worker and I had timed it perfectly.
