Stingray Bay, Warrnambool for Water H2O Thursday

 


The tide suddenly came in. The area was rather flat that the sea level instantly raised. 


I caught a bit of turquoise water before retreating.

Merri Sanctuary Sunset, Warrnambool for Treasure Tuesday

 


This dusk took me out of a surprise as weather forecast predicted a whole day of continuous storm. The weather bureau department needs to be sacked altogether 

I think I am done in this region. Another 2 weeks to go then back to civilisation.

Twelve Apostles Sunset Great Ocean Road for Treasure Tuesday

 


I cannot help being cheesy posting a frame that all tourists do here. People are all stampeding the boardwalk in the look out platform. The vibrations ruin my long exposure attempts. 

As I grow older, I prefer to stay away from the people. More like a recluse.

Mangrove at Cleveland, Brisbane for Water H2O Thursday

 


I actually like the smell of the mangroves - a little earthy and muddy.

Pulpit Rock, Cape Shanck, Mornington Peninsula for Sunday Best

 


This shot reflects a time that I was into the soft dreamy look of a landscape. I do ultra long long exposure too. Funny how time has passed. This was taken 2 years ago.

Cape Patterson reverse sunset for Sky Watch Friday

 


This is a long exposure shot when I used to visit the coast on my own. Joel only became my company after his separation from his wife.

Brighton Beach, Melbourne for Water H2O Thursday Event

 


There is no epic sky. Just the same overcast weather with constant drizzle. There is also no parking available in the area on weekends. So one can only visit during the weekdays.

Pinnacles Cape Woolamai Phillip Island for Water H2O Thursday Event

 


I realise I love photographing water and street candids. Street candids is an acquired taste due to my association with a former world class street photographer when I was in university years. Water photography on the other hand is a pattern I notice in my portfolio as well.

P.S. I finally received my camera after infra-red filter conversion. After 8 weeks! I will be testing the n520 wavelength filter in street photography tomorrow. Can't wait!

Cape Woolamai Pinnacles in Phillip Island for Randomosity

 


There was this Nikon Guy who tried to stand in front of me while I already set up my tripod in this location. So I had to move forward to get him out of my view. Talking about etiquette

Moonlight Head Beach for Skywatch Friday

 


This was one of the take I did in the past at Wreck Beach. I never seemed to get a decent weather there. 


Joel and I are planning to do this adventure again later this year. Mainly for astro photography along the great ocean road. Hopefully weather is better.

Bridgewater Bay for Treasure Tuesday


Miscalculation on my part. The low tide on Saturday was actually not so low 1 metre high. So Joel blamed me for it for the turbulent sea hitting at us. 

For me, sea is my treasure. The gentle hiking and the smell of ocean just cleanse my worries away.

By sunset, it was pouring rain on us. We ended up discovering another fish and chips shop run by Greek grandfather. The snapper and souvlaki were so yummy and delish!

Rabbit Rock Silhouette for Treasure Tuesday

 


I stood on this rock taking this shot. Then I was soaked wet by the sea waves. In a few minutes, where I stood was under the sea. It was wild.


This image is what I am after.

Montfort Beach, Blairgowrie, Mornington Peninsula for Sunday Best

 


Today though little chance of rain but the sky was completely overcast. Joel rang me saying he was too bored needing to do something. So we came to this same location from 2 weeks ago. This time, it is high tide. It was good for long exposure. The cloud break allows us to see some colours too. 

One Aussie chap was brave enough to enter this water which was pretty much freezing. The torrents were so severe that we thought we could lose him into the sea as well.

Sea view from Burleigh Heads in Gold Coast

 


There are so many lookouts along the Gold Coast. Burleigh Heads is the best location in my view. 

Chilly Bendigo at the moment. I am learning to live in this early winter.

Tangalooma Shipwreck

 


Finally having some time to work through the photos. 


These shipwrecks were deliberately placed at the shore to stop severe currents to the island.

Noosa Sunset for Sky Friday


 Noosa is really over the top with the urban scrawl. I find it unpleasant to travel through. The scenery takes a long while to find.

Pulpit Rock, Cape Schanck, Mornington Peninsula, Melbourne

 


Last weekend, we just had to get out of the house despite a stormy gloomy weather. It was mainly the stairs and steps I want to do to get my metabolism going. 

Spam filter here is getting to me again. So, I am trapped in this never ending gotcha moment proving I am not a robot. Sometimes I do feel that I am a robot in this capitalistic world.
