For a small east swell there sure were plenty of waves on offer this morning. Bondi was only 2 foot, but decent. A left in the middle provided some fun ones all the way to the beach and a southern corner right had the odd section. With warm weather, no wind and plenty of sunshine there’s every reason to get down for a dip/surf.
Max 25 degrees today, winds will blow 15 knots NE later, water temp. 20, high tide 3pm, low tide 8:45am.
Some of my mates say I haven’t been the same since Vooey reef took a divot out of my head. Maybe lost a bit of brain matter…who knows…but I definitely know I saw a Werewolf down at Bondi this morning attempting to paddle out in a fancy suit and I don’t eat mushies.
So you want to do your Christmas Shopping at the Aquabumps gallery...well, I just want to reiterate that you will need to place custom orders soon and give us a 3 week production lead time. You can check out our online catalogue here (which we’ve revamped), size things up, check out prices and search for something suitable…oh hell, just call Aimee on 02 9130 7788 and get em a gift voucher. We’re open every day 10am to 6pm (except Monday) and you’ll find us at 151 Curlewis Street Bondi Beach (behind the Bondi Hotel worksite). Still lost? Map
Enjoy today. It’s good outside. How strange was that 9am mist?
Adios, ::Ugios
someones going o’board on the tilt shift lens!
the shifty definitely looks good with a long run out of focus option. I think that’s where part of my problem was *ponders*
Uge, I honestly hate this shift lens business… i don’t know anything about cameras – zero – but all I see in the photos is a blur that makes me feel like I am peering though a cloudy tunnel, or even worse, looking at the beach with someone else’s really strong glasses on! It hurts! Go back to your old stuff which I love!
(I think this is probably the first negative post on your comment board and for that I apologise! I promise to buy a chrissy present from the gallery)
No worries Johno…I like all feedback.
Everything these days is crystal sharp digital clinical straight outa advertising photography – YAWN.
a blur here and there ain’t so bad…reminds me of my old cameras when I had to manual focus, and stuff it up – but looked cool anyway.
I am only trialling some tilt shift lenses, not sure if I will pursue, but I feel have to explore. for now…
Between 7:10 and 7:30am on Wednesday the 25th Nov, I was seated on the top bench of the Sauna at the Icebergs. To shift my attention away from the suffocating heat, I watched the wave riders. One particular surfer stood out from all the others, like the color red in a black and white picture. I was mesmerized by his movements and by the ease in which he floated so elegantly onto every carefully chosen wave with precision. I didn’t know the wave riders name and probably wouldn’t have found out if it weren’t for a friend who called me up this morning (Nov 26th) to tell me that a picture of the surfer with the red board shorts (the one my eyes had followed yesterday) was on this web site. So, to you Geremy MW Blake – it was a pleasure to watch you surf! Great photograph too.
