Sunrise @ Punggol Beach

Dawn @ Punggol Beach on 2nd Jan 2012... It has been a long time since I came back here. This beach was my favourite fishing spot since 1994, long gone the Punggol Sea Food restaurant and kelongs. The present Punggol Beach after the new face lift is indeed very different, with new jogging tracks, gathering place, fishing platform, nature walk and the good old pier... This place is really a new super cool place to visit. This photo was taken minutes after dawn break. Shot this photo with my E-PL1, super wide-angle M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 9-18mm F4.0-5.6 zoom lens, tripod mounted.
After the dawn break, I walked back down to the pier, saw the bed rocks by the pier, thought it would be nice if I step down my camera's f-stop more with longer exposure to give the incoming waves a more misty effect since the morning mist is covering the back ground. Took this photo with super wide-angle M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 9-18mm F4.0-5.6 zoom lens, Hoya Natural Density Filter ND8, tripod mounted. 
 
Sunrise @ Punggol Beach was terrific. Gosh.... just by looking at the sun slowly creeping out of the horizon, was really a good treat to the sight, mind and the body. Relaxing and rejuvenating were the words to describe the feelings at that point of time. I kept my ND8 on my super wide-angle M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 9-18mm F4.0-5.6 zoom lens when I took these photo. Thought giving a softer look on the sunrise instead of the typical sunrise photos which aint really my cup of tea.
