The start of winter has brought an end to a seemingly endless series of northerly, north westerly, or westerly gales in Melbourne.
It has also brought a couple of cold, clear, calm mornings.
This morning around the local haunts was pretty nice.
Although with 6 degree air and 14 degree water, it might be the last morning without booties for a while.
First stop Mentone 7.00 after dropping daughter at athletics training.
It was darker than that.



Glassy Beaumaris Bay beckoned, but I wanted to give the sun a chance.



Cup of coffee slowly drunk, 7.40 saw some sun.




Headed north for a check at Half Moon Bay, little northerly, tiny wind chop, would have been nice but headed back to Beaumaris.



Conditions lovely.
Photos can tell the rest.
