Watching the light shift across the hills is one of the great pleasures of being on the South Western Fleurieu, and it’s further enhanced by proximity to the sea.

Summer offers a starkness to the ocean and sky, but I’ve come to love the way sea and sky diffuse together in the winter. Here’s some of what we’ve seen.
