Sunrise at Marina Beach

My sister and I went to Marina beach today to see the sunrise. The first rays of sun appearing, the golden-orange sun and its reflection on water and sand, the sky in various hues of orange, pink, gray and blue were all so beautiful!

Here are some photos taken by us:

    The thing that immediately comes to mind is my Literature Prof telling us last semester that an artist once told him that the sunrise/sunset are among the few things that can be hardly well captured in a painting, for the shades are so transient and keep changing every minute.

    Nice pictures. Great way to spend a Sunday morning πŸ™‚

    Awesome pics. Really nice hues. And the pictures of the frothy waves have come out really good. What camera do you use?

    Have never woken up early to see a sunrise in my life (or maybe Ive seen a couple)… But these are great pix…

    On Marina – I think its one of the most beautiful beaches in the country and has great blue waters – One only hopes its developed to its full potential!

    Thank you. Forget about developing Marina to its full potential, I wish people have the sense to at least keep the place clean. 😐

    Talking of Bowli and Bhupalam, well, I only wish they got a better treatment at kutcheris other than being parts of Ragamalika Swarams! Sorry, Aparna for going off topic πŸ™‚
