Default Another Beautiful Sunrise on the Gold Coast

Woke up early this morning from a bad dream and thought I'd leave the family in bed, throw on some shoes and drive about 30 minutes from home to get some sunrise shots at Burleigh Head. Was racing against time, but thankfully did not get any speeding tickets and made it plenty of time for a beautiful sunrise! Here are a few shots:

"but officer, I have a duty to friends across the globe to capture the beauty of our coast at dawn" ... "BTW, I'll be rushing back in an hour or so to get them posted, so no need to pull me over then either..."
