Slowly but surely they reach out to you, tantalizing you with the flow, enticing you to get closer, to get more flow, to capture the S curve, only then will they will launch a full attack on the unsuspecting seascape photographer 🙂
Never turn you back on the sea, whether your snapping a shot or just about to jump in for a snorkel…
It has not rained in Sydney for some weeks, on the only weekend where I had some free time to pursue some imagery and it decides to rain, on both days of the weekend, however, with rain comes clouds and when you are on the edge of the storm clouds you can get some funky stuff happening with the clouds.

Its amazing to see the surf at work, slowly but surely moving the sand around and dislodging the rocks.
This particular rock is to the right of what is commonly known as the "elevator" on the southern end of Maroubra Beach, the " elevator" is a guaranteed fast moving rip which all the locals use as a speedy entry into the surf.

Timing and water movement can make the difference between a ok shot and a shot that is dynamic and has depth and form.
Seascape imagery involves quite a bit of waiting to get the right sized wave in the right position – this image was the first of several using the seaweed as a nice little prop, however I was not ready or setup for it, i merely plonked the tripod down knowing full well a nicely positioned wave was coming and did not have time to adjust the graduated filter or anything else for that matter. hence the overly dark headland and water, but on a positive note, i got the horizon bang on 🙂
Inspired by +Jay Patel and his recent bubbles image, thanks for the inspiration mate.
Joined on the morning by the fong man and rudy Rod. (+Cameron Fong & +Rodney Campbell ) Thanks for the company.

Kurnell, its gotta be one of the most under rated locales in Sydney, I personally love it – the line of cliff walls have so many unique features all along the 15 odd kilometer stretch. This one is the easiest point to get to, the rest, involves lots of walking.

Someone need to give the place some scale 🙂 even so, one cannot tell that the boulders on the right are the size of buses from the picture – conveying a sense of scale with a wide angle lens is quite difficult.

The quaint colour contrast of the rocks caught my eye here, from electric green to the rustic red, I guess its little surprise given the rocks are washed daily from Botany Bay accumlating all kinds of bacteria and organisms , bot natural and man made 😉

Eject
One can never have too many images of city with the worst traffic, well i am sure I am being a bit over dramatic, however.
The day some politician actually builds a second airport in Sydney will be a day of celebration….
or they could just let the floating helipad go ahead 🙂
Imagine being able to land right here 😉

We started so well, 'look at me i can ride by myself'…then 'look at me, no hands ma' and finally this is the consequences of no hands ma 🙂
There are two types of bike riders, those who have stacked it… and those who are gonna stack it 🙂
I really wish I had the time to properly go through all the images I take and process them…
This is place where I promised myself I would be back, sadly i have been within kilometres of the location on a handful of occasions and never gone back – next time 🙂

This image reminds me of being 12 years old and spending summer days wading through grass like this on a 40 degree day, how I got through childhood in one piece is beyond me 🙂
Monochrome madness, trying to visualize Black and white images is one very difficult task for me – if anyone has hints or tips on 'seeing' that BW composition I am all ears…
