The long stretches of Port Douglas' 4 mile beach terminate in the delta of Spring Creek. A lonely gum tree is juxtaposed with a cloud enshrouded mountain in the flat early morning light.
Seasonal burning of sugar cane colored the sky pink and lent a surreal light to this sunset taken on a late evening helicopter flight with the dors off... The water was unusually calm, conditions the pilot said he had not encoutered for years, and the glassy still water lent a perfect mirror to the sunset.
