A spontaneous visit to North Curl Curl rock pool a couple of nights ago resulted in some surprise catches.The few clouds that were in the sky lit up beautifully and went through the full range of sunset colours.
I have also been playing around with a few new toys lately. These photos use a variable neutral density filter to slow down the length of exposure time. I’ll write a little bit more about them all soon. Until then….Enjoy!!!
A couple of quick shot from a visit to Palm Beach at the end of Sydney’s Northern Beaches peninsula. I just nipped up here after work rather spontaneously but I am happy I did. I wanted to get a shot of the lighthouse for a while now.
I spent this morning up shooting dirt jumping at Castle Cove again. This week the big line was up and running again so I concentrated on shooting that. I’ve tried to include a shot or two from everyone. Hope I haven’t missed anyone. The thing about shooting at a new place is that when the shoot is over I always end up leaving with plenty of new angles and shots to think about. Guess I shall just have to go back again when I next get the chance.
A few shots from a short shoot at Castle Cove dirt jumps on the weekend. These were just really a bit of a test run for next weekend. I used a very lazy light set-up by just throwing a couple of flashes on the ground and pointing them up. Not optimal but I quite like the way a couple of them turned out.
Next week I am hoping to shoot the big kickers and spend a bit more time getting things set.
The morning brought with it smooth hollow waves. I spent the first couple of hours shooting again at Marquesas at Narrabeen. It was a beautiful sunrise with only a couple of clouds on the horizon, a nice change after all the rain over the last few days.
Marquesas can be a quite heavy shore break and a couple of people have come out of the water with snapped boards over the last couple of days but for those that pull it off the rewards can be great. In case you missed yesterdays post you can find the shots here
Recent storms have whipped up a solid swell here in Sydney. I got down to Marqesas at Narrabeen Beach on Sydney’s Northern Beaches and got a few shots done. The light conditions was quite variable. It was grey when I first got there but right at sunset a beautiful golden light shone through for a few minutes. I tried to keep shooting after sunset but it got dark quite quickly I’m hoping to get down there also early tomorrow morning and pick up the sunrise with a nice swell. Hopefully there will be plenty of people out surfing..
