The 2016 winter has been very stormy and wet with a few sunny , calm days in-between. Consequently, we have seen wild, surging seas along the granite coast west of the Victor Harbor township and Rosetta Head. The picture below was made whilst on an early morning poodle walk at Dep's Beach.
This image of a detail of the coastal granite rock was made on an early morning poodle walk with Kayla and Ari:
We had a morning of gentle winter sunlight amidst all the winter rains. It didn't last as it started raining now latter in the day. It is also very cold. More winter storms are expected.
From a late afternoon poodle walk on Goolwa Beach, the Fleurieu Peninsula, early June, the first month of winter:
Goolwa Beach is near the mouth of the River Murray.
None of these patterns are around on the beaches around Rosetta Head, where we live. Nor do we get the late afternoon winter light on the sandy beaches .
More early morning light at Dep's Beach, near Victor Harbor, west of Petrel Cove.

This was made on a poodle walk on the Sunday morning before I left for the road trip on the Mallee Highway.
It is part of the rocks just west of Petrel Cover near Rosetta Head.
