Morning at Shelley Beach. Caloundra. Qld

I love walking around the rocks at lowtide at Shelley Beach. There are a lot of rockpools to explore. I also love the colours as the tide starts to recede over the rocks. On this occasion it was the reflections that caught my eye,so i set up my easel and painted this picture. I was very happy with the result. This would look great in any room with a lovely frame around it. I used acrylics on stretched csnvas.
