Burleigh Heads Sunrise

Up to catch the sunrise on one of the last days of my Christmas break. Sunrise was nice, sharing it with a few seagulls.

Eastern Water Dragon surveying his territory from the cliff at Duranbah. Not only is he suffering the indignity of shedding his skin, but he also has a rather large paralysis tick stuck to his neck.
