Eastern light
At the helm of a small coastal town known mostly for its surf culture, resident hippies and breathtaking beaches, Byron Bay’s most iconic claim to fame is its lighthouse which is perched close to the easternmost point on mainland Australia. The lighthouse is easily accessible by road 24 hours a day. You can drive up [...]
Good morning gentlemen!
In Australia, it is customary for friends to meet up on a Sunday morning for breakfast to catch up and “share the latest goss”. In keeping with this very fine tradition, these cormorants find themselves in a similar setting at sunrise at one of my favourite piers – the one at North point. Looking somewhat [...]
North Point Pier
This looks like we might have a very pier filled week. Pictured above is one of the smaller piers next to the boat launch at North Point, where North Road meets the beach between Elwood and Brighton. This humble little steel structure has a lot going for it. This spot has one of the best [...]
Beachfront at the Bay of Islands
The Bay of Islands lies further west of Port Campbell and is another area with a concentration of limestone pinnacles jutting out of the water in the ocean just off the mainland. This stretch of sandy beach is one of the few places where you can get close to these limestone stacks without getting your [...]
Tidepools at dusk
Sunset and sunrise have to be a photographers two best times to shoot at. This is when one does not have to deal with harsh shadows and the light is even. Sometimes, the lack of light even helps to add further versatility to how the image eventually appears. Take this shot for example… the simplest [...]
Evening tidepools
We got totally rained on today… woke up at 4:45a.m. to drive a good 38kms from Marengo to Moonlight Head. When we got there at first light, the skies were overcast, but it still hadn’t rained. As we made our ways down to the anchors, the skies opened up, and it poured on us! So [...]
Marengo sunset
There are some things about Australian skies that no other place in the world offers. This shot was taken a few weeks ago on the beach at Marengo, ten minutes away from Apollo Bay. The sun had just sunk beneath the clouds in the distance as the wind began to blow in from the Southern [...]
Marengo moonscape
Located along Great Ocean Road, just a 10 minute drive out of Apollo Bay lies the sleepy little coastal town of Marengo, home to the Marengo Reefs Marine Sanctuary. This stretch of rocky beach is rich in tidepools teeming with marine life that is washed up every day by the incoming tides. On a sunny [...]
