PICS: Saturday morning cooking at Cooks

Looked around for somewhere to photograph on Saturday morning before it clouded over and ended up tramping down to the sands of Cooks Terrace. A crew was having a lash at the heavily shutting down conditions. Every now and then a wave would come through so I popped off a few frames with a Canon […]

A Saturday with waves…whadya know

Hello Friends, Since I have Canon’s schmick 5D MkII and a 100-400mm lens to test (good being a photo mag editor!) at the moment, I wandered around looking for waves to take pictures of. Found some at Cooks Tce where a small group were basically risking board and limb to get into some very crunchy […]

Lazy Sunday afternoon

Hello Friends, Coming back from kid soccer around noon, I had a look at the waves in Avalon, Cooks and Northy. All were very small, but people were out having a go anyway because it was just such a fantastic day. Mild, sunny, light offshores… if only we had a couple more feet of swell. […]

Dee Why to Bungan report 10:45am

Late arvo update: Wazza to Mona

Running a bit late with the late arvo update! Oh well. Had a look at the Warriewood to Mona stretch at around 5pm. There were quite a few bods in the water up at Warriewood. but only a few up toward the more wind exposed Mona Vale. If you didn’t mind a bit of chop […]

Saturday Snaps Cooks to Northy

Hello Friends, Did a lot of shooting but no surfing – and you’re the beneficiary! First up, pics from Cooks to Northy…

Mid-arvo, Sunday & a few tiny ones

Hello Friends Out and about on errands of one sort or another and made sure I stopped by the beach to grab you a snap or three. After a bitterly cold change at lunchtime, this afternoon cleared up pretty nicely along the northern beaches. A stiff offshore breeze was making the tiny scraps of south […]
