Morning sunrise a precursor to a scorcher Thursday

A 'surprising” amount of people showed up on Mount Main Beach this morning to snap the sunrise.

SunLive photographer Cameron Avery was among them and captured the sun as it rose into the sky.

The idyllic setting is just a precursor to another scorcher of a day in the Bay of Plenty.
