 Sunset photography. My photos are taken at Foxton Beach and by the Manawatu River at Foxton Beach. These photos you see here are taken at sunset my favourite time of day. When my sister and I go on long walks around the point or just down sunset walkway, so I can capture these stunning moments you see here, in this beautiful place I call home. These photos represent love, because taking photos of the sunset is something I love doing, and it making me truly happy and I hope they make you happy too.
