Somewhere near 2nd valley / Cape Jervois on the coast about an hours drive east of Adelaide. Taken a couple years ago, not sure if I've learned anything since but would like to think so.
I like this one DPR. It has that certain something that alludes to a simple, but better life. It makes me want to be there, in that beach shack, sitting back reading in the sun and enjoying the solitude of the stunning coastline. Where the most pressing problem facing me is what time am I going to throw a line in to catch dinner. I like the colours and clarity, but most of all I like the way it invites you there and makes me wish I was standing next to you.

Only have cr*ppy phone, so will have a look when I get to my computer...
Now that I'm at my computer; OK, I think I would have moved the camera to the right, only slightly though... but this is a nice relaxing scene...

Nicely composed Robert, a scene I've photographed several times...the beach is called Lady Bay, there's even a small waterfall at the cliff base further down the beach.
Colour and sky is Vgood mate, knowing the spot I would suggest moving down the hill face a little to take the shot and in doing so getting rid of a bit more fenceline and the eroded soil/creek embankment on the left.
{ You used to be able to rent the shacks at one stage not so many years ago from the Yankalilla Council }

Thank you for the suggestion.
FYI my name is Stephen, Dread Pirate Roberts was a film character in the movie Princess Bride that I thought apt as a forum name since one of the lines in the film is "I'm not the real Dread Pirate Roberts... the real Dread Pirate Roberts is retired living on a beach in the Carribean".

I can see myself sitting half way up the hill relaxing on a warm spring day watching the waves roll in this looks beautiful love it thanks for sharing
If you had told me it was NZ I would almost have believed you. If it were that building would be a bach. (pronounced batch). It looks like a great place to spend some time.
