20130717_1261_1D3-400 Nadi Bay Sunet 3 (Day 198/365) [Explored]

            The last photo I will upload of yesterday's stunning sunset at Wailoaloa Beach in Nadi, Fiji. The first time I have had to increase my ISO for a direct sun shot.  In sequence this is in between shots 2 and 4 posted yesterday.

Selected for Explore. #269 17/07/13

There is a bit of a back story to this image.  
My wife and I had driven from her family home near Suva to Nadi via the Kings Road (up the east and north coast of Viti Levu) calling in at some of her relatives on the way.  We finally arrived at Nadi Bay Resort Hotel about 20 minutes before sunset, quickly checked in and carted our bags to our room.  I said to my wife I will just shoot down the road (Wailoaloa Road) to the beach to see the sunset arriving about three or four minutes before this shot was taken.  Just in time!
