Surf picture gallery from North Steyne Weds 6 Dec 17

Skies may have been cloudy, so the colour wasn’t too interesting, but the waves were pumping for the early session at Manly beach’s North Steyne on Wednesday morning. Here are a few samples…

PICS: South Narrabeen, late Saturday afternoon

Conditions came together very nicely late Saturday afternoon, 8 Sep 2016 at south Narrabeen. It was offshore and chest plus. Better still for the lucky folks in the water, it was astoundingly uncrowded.
Herewith a few samples taken from the gallery here.

Pics: Long Reef, Sunday afternoon 31 July

Some solid sets on offer at Long Reef Sunday afternoon. I shot pictures from just south of the lifeguard box to the north end of the bombies and came away with 448 pictures which have now been posted in this gallery. Here are few samples, any one of which when clicked will also take you to the gallery. As always I took pictures of regular surfers catching fun waves, so no matter what your skill level, you could find yourself here…

PICS: First gallery of the winter season, Dee Why point Tuesday morning 24 May

Took a couple hundred pics (seriously) Tuesday morning at the point as a 2 metre SSE swell at 10 seconds did its thing. Kinda busy, not super consistent and often fat on the still high tide, but the quality moments were still there to be had…

One of the owners was on it this morning

PICS from Sunday morning at Dee Why from the point to No Man’s

Went shooting on Sunday morning at Dee Why beach. It was just too busy for me to contemplate. Conditions were pretty good, but the shutdown factor was a problem and despite the reasonable 2 metre, 12-sec SE swell, a lot of the waves seemed kinda fat. But not all of them. I saw three broken boards in the 90 minutes or so I was at the beach, so definitely some snap to some of ’em. Anyway, here are a few piccies from the gallery that should be accessible by Monday morning. As always, I was looking for regular surfers having fun, rather than hot shots trying to make surf mag covers. Over 300 from the shooting session that went from around 0930 to 1100. I was shooting folks from about the pole to the point.
Go see all the pictures!

Not as big as the beachy, but some fun ones for the healthy crowd at the point

Another fun section for the lucky one of 40-odd in the water

Throwing spray just up the beach from the SLSC

A few bombs in the mix at No Man’s around 1000

Not always makeable, but some pretty fun sections to be had

Finding refuge from the crowd at the point

It looked pretty benign…

…but it bit his board in half…

PICS: Dee Why point Tues 28 July 2015

Tuesday morning saw solid two metre plus south swell and a low tide at Dee Why point for around 30 keen participants. Size ranged from shoulder-ish to solidly overhead. I managed to get over 200 pics of the action which you can check out by going here.

PICS: mid Curl Curl Saturday am 9/5

Saturday morning, 9/5/15 and I stopped by Curly to shoot a few snaps between 1050 and 1130 at just about the mid-point of the beach. Lighting conditions were perfect, wind was perfect, swell was pretty fun, banks were semi-ok in a Curly kinda way. And there were heaps of surfers out having fun chasing waves. As usual, all images link to the gallery…
