Destination Anytime by Sarah Thom in Melbourne, Australia

Summer in Melbourne is special. There is a feeling in the air. A feeling of excitement that takes over the place. On hot days everyone goes down to the beach after work for the sunset to take in the sun kissing the day farewell. This was one of those nights. I went down and luckily had my iPhone with me to capture the moment.
