21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Prawn Trawler crossing the Ballina Bar

I sm a volunteer and work an early dawn shift. This photo was taken around 0500 hours and is a prawn trawler leaving the harbour for the days catch. I was captured by its almost ghostly appearance as it headed out to sea and the full moon almost reflecting the lights of the trawler.
