Nilmini De Silva, Sunrise Hill End (October theme: Light and Dark)

We saw the 2024 New Year in at Hill End. It was incredible to be so far away from the hustle and bustle of Sydney. This image was one of the first I took this year, as we went up to a look out point for sunrise. I loved the layering of the mountains in the distance and used my EF 100-400mm telephoto to compress the scene. I also enjoyed turning the image into monochrome, which has emphasised the light and dark.
