About kayakcameraman

I’m a kayaker who has fallen in love with photography. You'll find me quietly snapping away at the unique seasonal changes that take place around me. I began paddling on the lake as a way to rebuild both my body and mind after enduring an intensive three-month bout of chemotherapy due to testicular cancer. I had never paddled a kayak prior to this and very quickly discovered how stunning it is to be on the water looking out – rather than in. What I love about photography and paddling is that it provides you with best head space. This is why I love my daily paddles, as it gives me peace and contentment along with some of the best natural light shows. Why would you not want to experience it!

Paddler in the Mist

29 April 2014: I drifted away on glassy waters watching the sun burn through the mist to produce a magical atmosphere this morning. The temperatures maybe getting cooler here in Canberra but that’s why the conditions are so stunning. The wind were calm, the scenery was stunning and the light was fantastic. I’m loving autumn in Canberra.

Superb Stroll

24 April 2014: I was mesmerised buy a gorgeous golden sunrise and the awesome atmosphere that it created. The scenery was stunning and the silhouettes were superb as I strolled my way along Nobbys Beach, Newcastle this morning. It was so nice to feel the sand between the toes. I hope that you enjoy the shots.

Casual Cruise

23 April 2014: I casually cruised my way into a glorious sunrise this morning. I thoroughly enjoyed all the sights and sounds of Newcastle harbour as the winds were light, the light was superb and I wasn’t in any hurry at all. I hope that you have a great day.

It was a very relaxed morning out on the water this morning

Wonderful Memories

22 April 2014: Wonderful memories came flooding back as I was bathed in golden light on Newcastle Beach and the Newcastle Ocean Baths this morning. I spent the majority of my youth scampering and jumping off Newcastle Point for a surf, swimming in the Newcastle Ocean Baths and chasing waves at Nobbys Beach. This is such a gorgeous stretch and I thoroughly enjoyed wondering around my old stomping grounds this morning. I hope that you enjoy the shots.

Change of Scenery

18 April 2014: LBG definitely had an alpine feel about it this morning with mist hovering in the valleys and the surrounding mountains. At 5.45am the sky was clear and I was being treated to some very soft morning tones. The scenery changed dramatically when the fog rolled in from the East Basin blanketing the entire lake and creating a mystical scene.

Immersed in a World of Beauty

17 April 2014: This morning I was engulfed by a golden misty blanket and transported to a world of sheer beauty. The elements were all on my side with clear skies, non existent winds and water like a sheet of glass. I’m absolutely loving autumn in Canberra.
