How are you this beautiful morning? What do you mean, it’s a Monday, it’s wet and you’re tired? Some of us have been up for ages, and headed down to the beach to catch the solstice sunrise.

I wasn’t alone, even at the exceptionally early hour, and was joined on the beach by several others, some of whom were also photographing the dawn.

Not only were there a couple of us capturing the scene, but there were dog walkers, joggers (both nude and textile) using the beach at that time.

I’ve also replicated the scene in Second Life, taking the opportunity to head to the very edges of the Eden Naturist Estate and capture the sun rise on this beautiful morning!
