Fairy Cove, Wilsons Promontory
Drove from the Fish Creek Hotel at 5am to drive to Wilsons Promontory.
The walk to Fairy Cove is a reasonable 45mins, and is the perfect sunset spot (this morning I was hoping for a reverse sunrise).
Whilst it was high tide, within 5mins of setting up at this location, as I was fitting my Gobe ND1000 filter to my lens, a massive, random wave came crashing up against the rocks, soaking me up to my chest and getting my non-waterproof camera wet.
Fortunately I have a wonderful partner who took off their jumper in 9 degree Celsius, 50km/hr windy weather, to dry off my camera as quickly as possible so that no damage was done.
Unfortunately, as I'd just screwed on the filter to my lens, I missed capturing the moment of splashdown - would have made for an epic image.
