Salty Bathtub
I ventured south to Bronte Pool—AKA Icebergs-Lite—to mix things up. There’s always a lot going on down there, as well. The pool was full, and lots of people were up early chasing those elusive sunrise spectacles that have graced our horizons lately—unfortunately, it was a bit of a fizzer. We’ve still got a massive period […]

Bondi+Bronte
Tropical Cyclone Alfred is now 200 km off Brisbane, but its effects can be felt down here in Sydney. This morning, we had volatile weather, a few sprinkles, onshore winds from Alfred’s tail, and mushy, uninviting waves (no one out). These days are always a little tricky for me to shoot, trying to polish up […]

Utopian Daze
It wasn’t the most picturesque morning down at Bondi. There was a strong onshore wind, a very dark sky, and small, dribbly wind-blown surf. I’ll ‘fess up; I skipped shooting this morning…just didn’t see gold in the mundane! This storm will pass, and the rest of the week looks beach-worthy and hot. Pro-tip: get the […]

Reminiscing
I’m late today, mainly because I didn’t take photos this morning. It was drizzling slightly around 7 a.m., so I took that as a sign to put the cameras down and sip another coffee whilst the skies remained dark. It was onshore from the get-go; Bondi is a mush pile, so this was also another […]

Around here…
Whilst the ENE swell has enlarged overnight, it isn’t better. There is a howling 20-knot NE wind in town, knocking things around. This morning I visited local beaches and places I rarely frequent, hunting new angles or shots for your viewing pleasure. I can’t say I saw anyone scoring good waves on my morning wanderings. […]

Frenzy
If you own a surfboard, there’s a fair chance you were out there this morning. Am I right? Typically, I arrive at the beach, and it is quiet, as you all sleep and slowly flow into the bay – but today – wow, it was a mass of humans as the sun rose around 6 […]

Vitamin D
After a lot of grey and patchy weather, it was so nice to score an A-Grade, top-notch, exquisite Sunday beach day. The winds remained gentle all day, keeping it neat, and the high tides provided dreamy blue hues at most of Sydney’s bays. I visited most of the beaches of the East on Sunday, and […]

Bogey Time
For something different, I popped over the hill to the quaint seaside village of Bronte. Bronte is famous for its’ Bogey Hole, a natural ocean pool snug up against the beach’s southern end. At sunrise, the light at Bronte is good. It consistently hits the pool at a decent angle, illuminating many natives during their […]

Dolphin Show
The talk of the morning around Bronte and Tamarama was a very large pod of Dolphins frolicking in the morning light. They were having a great time pleasing the morning walkers. Waves are bigger, messy and not ideal. Bondi looked junkie, and with cross-onshore forecast, I’d pass. Bronte has some lefts back into the corner, […]

Randomness
We’re all freaking out cause it’s gonna rain for a few days – some say 100mm tomorrow (so stoked as there’s no roof on most of my house currently under reno). Those dreamy after-work scorchers spent dunking in the ocean are over – for now. The beach and waves looked dire this morning—onshore, dark grey, […]

Recent Work
I’ve been waiting for a lame, grey, onshore day to show you a few pics from my recent adventures. In contrast to today’s bland flavour, recently, we’ve been blessed with epic ocean colours and endless beach weather. I didn’t shoot anything today, which is rare for me. It’s a great day to be inside and […]

il Bronte
Bronte, that little cove bay around the corner where plenty amass before work. It’s always good when the southerly is howling, having a big protecting cliff face on the south side. Bogey Hole, the rock pool next to the ocean pool, is one of Sydney’s busiest little water patches. It’s always a good angle on […]

Flip
It was a dreamy morning with solid wave options. A mixture of swells provided clean waves at most Sydney beaches – some sets in the 4-5ft range! It’s about to flip as the encroaching southerly makes its way up the coast to us…my prediction is that between 3-4 pm today, it will be all over […]
