True Magic

Posted on September 26, 2013 by kayakcameraman

26 Sept 2013: True magic is the only way to describe my paddle on LBG this morning. I can rant and rave about how beautiful it was or how I drifted on a massive sheet of glass that was the entire main basin and experienced a truly stunning sunrise. I had the water to myself for ages and the mirror reflections were glorious and many times throughout my two hour paddle it felt like I was floating on the clouds. Anyway enough of the chatter, I’ll let the photos tell the story. I hope that you enjoy the shots.

Wow is the word of the morning

Soothing Sunday

Posted on September 22, 2013 by kayakcameraman

22 Sept 2013: I’m not going to rant and rave how stunning it was or how the water soooooo perfect that you couldn’t tell which way was really up and how the morning transformation took me on a visual journey that was so soothing. I’ll let the photostory do exactly that.

5.23am: Even when I arrived it had all the marking of a great morning

In Cruise Mode

Posted on September 21, 2013 by kayakcameraman

21 Sept 2013: I was definitely in cruise mode this morning with pastel pinks to the west and golden tones east. It’s nice to have smooth conditions again after a fortnight of turbulent weather.

Yeeeeehaaaaaa the weekend is here.

Speechless and in Awe.

Posted on September 5, 2013 by kayakcameraman

5 September 2013: It’s the most amazing feeling when you experience a sunrise like this. Words just can’t convey it, but hopefully the photos can; what an absolute stunner of a morning. The morning began with predawn tiger stripes forming on the horizon and very quickly gorgeous pastel colours lit up the morning skies and it felt like I was paddling on pink and lilac clouds.By 6.18am I was witnessing another brilliant sunrise out here on LBG and for me that’s what it is all about. Seeing the beginning of a new day always puts a giant smile on my dial. I hope you enjoy the shots as much as I have enjoyed taking them.

Super Dooper Mega WOW

Posted on August 31, 2013 by kayakcameraman

31 August 2013: That was one of the most mind blowing gorgeous, stunning, brilliant, vivid, amazing, glorious, fantastic (and as many other great words you can use) sunrise. Super wow, mega wow come close to describing the impact that had on me. I am truly blessed to be able to experience something like this. My Canon PowerShot D20 was working overtime this morning capturing a superb send off to winter. I hope you enjoy the shots from this morning as much I do.

Marbled Madness

Posted on August 26, 2013 by kayakcameraman

26 August 2013: The order for this morning was mad marbled crazed skies, smooth waters with light winds and that’s what was perfectly delivered. There is no better way to prepare myself for the working week that lies ahead. I hope that you enjoy the this morning’s shots and have a great week.

6.06am: This is shaping up to be a cracker of a morning!

Hidden Treasure

Posted on August 22, 2013 by kayakcameraman

22 August 2013: I was totally blown away this morning. Who would have thought that a vivid and gorgeous sunrise could take place on such a blustery and miserable morning? I was on the water for 6am and I decided to drift my way up the Molonglo River with dark and heavy clouds brooding overhead. Then it was as if someone opened the hidden treasure box. The light show was brilliant, intense and lasted for about 10 minutes. My pocket rocket ‘Canon PowerShot D20’ was working over time as I truly didn’t expect to be treated to anything like this at all. The beautiful colours were quickly extinguished and it wasn’t long before I was paddling amongst light drizzle. Totally amazing; it just goes to show you, you never know what you will experience until you get out there and have a go.

The skies were angry this morning!

Best of July

Posted on August 4, 2013 by kayakcameraman

What a wonderful winter it’s been. The thing I love the most about winter is that it produces the most amazing conditions with each morning having its own unique signature. One morning its crystal clear and the Red Chilli is slicing its way through glassy waters. The next morning it’s thick as pea soup and you can’t see five metres in front of you. I hope that you enjoy the variety of shots that comprise my ‘Best of July’ photo journal.

A brilliant transformation, the pastel pinks quickly turned into glossy gold’s.

Sunday Spectacular

Posted on July 28, 2013 by kayakcameraman

28-July 2013: Unbelievable! Vivid reds and vibrant oranges lit up the morning skies to produce one of the best sunrises that I have seen for a while. But it didn’t stop there, then the morning transformed into an amazing light spectrum that constantly wowed me for the entire that I was out there. The glassy waters of Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra were the perfect accompaniment and at times it felt like I was slicing through the clouds. The photos just don’t do it justice and as note, none of my photo’s are digitally enhanced at all, this makes it even more amazing.

Surreal Saturday

Posted on July 27, 2013 by kayakcameraman

27 July 2013: I was totally immersed in another world this morning. That would have to be one of the most amazing experiences I have had for a while. I just drifted away and allowed myself to escape into Mother Nature’s beauty. I consider myself one lucky person.
