Portsea beach cave sunset for Sunday Best

 

This cave was way too small for my size. I kept hitting the ceiling of the cave by my head

Forest Cave Phillip Island for Treasure Tuesday

 

This is low tide. Having high tide, this cave would be under water. Love sunset through the cave.

Tarragal Cave for Treasure Tuesday

 

This is a location once a home shelter of the local aboriginal population. The cave emits loud noise from the wind coming into the cave.

It has been a project over the past few years that I try to find these esoteric sea caves which were often immersed in sea during high tides. They are not easy to access but it has become an adventure since pandemic happens. 

The good thing about these sea caves is that no tourists come visit at all. But the bad thing is if anything happen to me, no one would know about it. Sometimes rogue waves would cover the sea cave opening and wash me down the cave into an abyss. The very thought does scare me from time to time. This is why I have stopped photographing sea caves now. Time to do something cheaper and safer.

I just heard on the radio that this cave out of a trio at Inverloch was now collapsed. No injuries. But this cave has been a secret spot for many of us photographers over the years.

Sea Cave in Inverloch

 

The coastline from Inverloch to Hamer's beach is where dinosaur fossils are frequently discovered. There are numerous sea caves along the coastline too. 

This particular cave is very wide. There are many spiders crawling on the ground as well. Not a fun place to stay still.

This cave collapsed early this year. Lucky I had snapped a few in here before. 

Love the B+W look

Forest Cave at Phillip Island for Sunday Best

 

This is where 4 people were drowned in Nov 2023. This cave is totally under water within 10 minutes. 90% of the time, it is where fish swim. 

Looks wet and raw. I kind of love it.

Forest Cave Coast for Skywatch Friday

 

Joel and I were supposed to find the entrance to forest cave. We believed the tide was not low enough that the entrance was immersed in the sea still. So we took a snap at the sea.

Sea Cave at Mornington Peninsula, Australia

 

Three years later, I realise I had something good going in blogspot. Though I had started my ventures in zenfolio and instagram, blogspot platform has its own advantages. I think I cannot put all eggs in one basket as all my previous successful blogs on here either get bot attacked or domain hijacked. So this is just a space that I post whatever I want from my amateur career in photography 

This sea cave is among the thousands on back beach of Mornington Peninsula.

Kind of spooky inside this cave. But the view is quite nice. Worth the effort to come here in the cold.

Melville Rocks, Loddon Valley, Greater Bendigo, Australia

 

Earthy rugged landscape used to be something I got obsessed for a while. Since I live close to the arid part of the state.

This is a good location for photographing milky way at night. I just dont have the guts doing so.

Pirate's Bay, Mornington Peninsula, Australia

 

This is the coast that is still classified within Melbourne district. And, no, there are no pirates here. In fact, pirates will die coming here. This cave is usually under the sea in high tide. These rocks can cut my shoes so easily like razor blades.

It has been a fever to capture various unknown caves at seaside since the pandemic. Well, this is the best way to avoid crowd. And there is a bit of explorer feel to it. My friend got various sorts of trauma from walking around these areas too.

I just got my forth dose for Covid. Arm is painful for quite a few days already.
