Before Sunset at Brighton – A Photo Tour
I have never imagined Melbourne to be this beautiful. Just before sunset on an autumn day, I was at the bayside walking along the Bayside Coastal Trail that connected Sandringham to Brighton Beach. In my previous post, we already featured a photo tour around Sandringham and the lovely landscape with cliffs and beaches. This time, at the Brighton Beach, I enjoyed the enchanting scenery before sunset.
In the next set of images, you can see there is the sign “Run, Leon, Run”, and curiously the next picture shows “Leon” running away from me in the background.
Last year when I went to Melbourne, I was awed by the jaw-dropping ocean landscape at the Twelve Apostles. This time I was attracted to the sea-side once again. Brighton Beach is sometimes coined “the face of Melbourne”, that shows how beautiful it is; and in summer there are numerous colorful bathing boxes which made the place famous. I couldn’t find any bathing boxes (perhaps I missed them carelessly) during my walk.
Palm trees by the beach, and a blazing sun – this is what I imagined Gold Coast or Florida would be! Although I’ve never been to either. I’ve never seen a sunset as stunning as this – I am sure I would miss this place a lot.
I immersed in the breathtaking scenery as the air began to feel cold as the skies darkened. Reluctantly, I knew it was time to leave the place. Before I left, I took a picture of the exquisite houses by the bayside, the people inside are blessed with such an amazing view each day that made me jealous.
Next week, I’ll post more images of a wonderful beach house restaurant and more pics of the sunset. Thanks for watching! Please kindly leave a comment below if you like these images.

The sunsets are amazingly perfect. It must have been breathtaking to be there in person!
Yes, it’s hard to leave the place.
Lol. Brighton is in England for me 😀
Gorgeous photos! I can see why it was hard to leave!

Twilight over the water is always a favorite for me – whether it be dawn or dusk. These are GORGEOUS! xoxoM
We’re glad you liked the photos as much as we did! Thanks. 🙂
What breathtakingly, gorgeous images! The skies are so of color and texture!
Yes, I was lucky to capture some beautiful clouds that day; how boring it would be if it were cloudless!
Must have been a wonderful experience!
Yes indeed, but I traveled alone this time without white bear; it’s an amazing landscape we would like to see together.
Thank for your beautiful pics. (Who’s Leon? lol)
I wonder who Leon is too… Thanks for your comment!
Very very beautiful! Your photos inspire me to go to Melbourne. (^_^)/
Glad to hear that! Thank you for your kind words.
Awesome views and nice write up. My next trip to the beach will be with my ND filter.
Yes, I traveled light this time, without a tripod or filters… next time I would be better prepared! =D
Nothing wrong with that, the pics look great. I like blurring the water and long exposures. Something I’m just getting in to.
Beautiful photos!

Beautiful pictures! Makes me want to go to Brighton 🙂
That’s a great photo set there!
Very nice series. My favorite is number 3. I like how you included the runner in the scene and the wind swept grass really adds a dynamic element to the photograph. Then there is the gorgeous sunset to back it all up. Great job.
so beautiful…loved these pics and considering how much I love sunrises and sunsets..
