This is the end of The Spit. It is a sand peninsula which separates the calm Southport waters from the pacific ocean. Two cyclones have hit the coast of Australia in one day. Cyclone Lam in the Northern Territory and Marcia in Queensland. Here on the Gold Coast it has been raining heavily for two days. The high tide here coincided with the arrival of the storm this morning. I thought the end of the spit would make a good shot. It was surprisingly busy with locals, photographers and a channel 9 news team.
