PICS: Manly Wed morning and pumping
It was a beautiful morning with lashings of solid ESE swell and from Queensy to South Steyne there were peaks aplenty for the frothing punters. I rocked up with the shooting rig and spent over an hour pointing the lens at very photogenic waves. As always my goal was to get shots of typical surfers […]
Manly this morning
Went for a look at Manly to see how the swell was behaving itself this morning. Average period was close to 10 seconds and that meant the two metres of E to ESE swell was lighting up the entire stretch from Queensy to south steyne. Throw in sunny skies and light offshores and it was […]
Pumping Saturday
Hello Friends, It be pumping at south swell spots this morning. Swell is around the three metre mark on average off Sydney. It’s coming from the S-SSE at a touch under 13 seconds apart and the wind is not a factor to begin with. A quick survey from high atop Collaroy Plateau reveals that the […]
PICS: Bungan midday Wed 11 Aug going ‘orf
After shooting at North Narrabeen for an hour, I decided to move to another beach to see what the NE swell was doing. Ended up doing the trek down to Bungan where a crew were extracting numerous moments of intense fun from the overhead sets and clean offshore conditions. Bungan 11 Aug 2010 1230-1330 – […]
PICS: North Narra, Wed am 11 August – firing!
One of the best days of the 2010 winter surf season, so I blew off writing responsibilities, grabbed the camera and went looking for firing waves. First stop was North Narrabeen where the NE swell was unloading into an offshore wind much to the delight of the assembled crew. North Narrabeen Wed 11 Aug 2010 […]
What a day!
Hello late evening visitors! Hope Sydney surfers all got in for a wave at some point during the day. The NE swell was pumping at exposed places. Sets were into the overhead range (solidly) and it was pretty consistent. I did a fair amount of shooting too. Started this morning at Northy on a […]
PICS: Sth Narra Sunday 13 June (0945-1045)
It was all gone when I checked again toward mid-afternoon, but Saturday morning there were some very fun sections to be found at south Narrabeen. It was reasonably, but not insanely, busy when I was down shooting. The light was perfect and although the shutdown percentage was in the 80% range, there were some fine […]
Still firing this morning
Hello Friends, Another morning with solid and offshore conditions at south swell spots. According to the Bureau’s forecast, it should be southerly, so you’d have to think the offshores will gradually fade as the wind falls back in line with the prediction. Wave faces on the big ones at Dee Why look to be pretty […]
PICS: Mona Vale Sun 30 May 2010
Visited Mona Vale only briefly on Sunday but got a few shots to share. It was about as big as anywhere else and on the sets it was looking about as impressive as Manly and Northy. Anyway, hope you enjoy! And remember, if you see yourself in the shots and want to get a high […]
PICS: Nth Narrabeen Sun 30 May 2010 – noon
Sunday the 30th of May should make the top ten best days of this year. After shooting for a couple hours at Manly, I wandered north to see how the swell was doing at spots like Mona Vale and Northy. Here’s a selection of shots from the latter… North Narrabeen Sun 30 May 2010 (noon) […]
