Silky Morning

Silky Morning

It was pouring again the night before, and although the sun was up a few hours ago, the fishing village below was all quiet. The small wooden boats moored idly in the bay and most fishermen rested for the day, as more thunderstorm was predicted later.

As the storm cloud dragged itself through the morning sky, the rays of the sun pierced through the edges, illuminating the bay with a soft golden glow and creating a silky sheen on the surface of the sky, sea and land. The air was crisp and the soft breeze still sprinkled the remaining drizzles of rain here and there.

This silky scene was captured from high ground above the bay in Tanjung Bungah. This is one of my favourite spots for landscape photography because the scenery there is always changing from day to day - from dramatic chaos on a stormy day to pure serenity the next day.
