Photograph of the week: Sunrise in the Seychelles

Many people visit the Seychelles for a relaxing beach holiday, complete with lengthy lie-ins, casual strolls on the sand, or lazing on the beach under the tropical afternoon sun. However, for those willing to sacrifice a bit of sleep, the Seychelles are also home to some of the world’s most spectacular sunrises, such as this one, taken from Anse Sévère Beach, on La Digue. The silhouette of the islands on the horizon and the palm tree hanging over the ocean only add to the spectacle.

  1. Sunrise are amazing subjects you can’t go wrong capturing. They make perfect backgrounds and inspire a lot of feelings like nostalgia and wistfulness. Even when they are not as dramatic as this photo, taking one allows you to capture the change in lighting. But sometimes it can be hard to capture with just a mobile phone, which most people use a lot of now. This picture reminds me of so many similar places with the same focus, the coconut tree jutting out to the sea and the sunrise, clear blue skies, or sunset in the background. Beautiful image though.
