Smiles all around

Posted on August 28, 2013 by kayakcameraman

28 August 2013: There were huge smiles from everyone as it was a glorious spring like morning. There were plenty of people out and about enjoying the superb conditions. Kayakers were out there slicing through the mist, people were whizzing by on bikes hands waving in the air, loads of walkers and joggers were happily chatting and saying hello. The scull population has dramatically increased over the past fortnight as they were shooting all over the place. Spring is definitely on its way and I can’t wait to see Canberra burst into colour. I hope you get the chance to get outside today and enjoy it.

5.55am: What a beautiful start to the day.

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!

Great reflections always put a smile on the dial.

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!

Turbulent sunrise

Posted on August 21, 2013 by kayakcameraman

It sure was a cold and turbulent morning out there with the wind slicing straight through you. I decided to seek the protection of the wetlands with my aim to capture a small amount of beauty on an otherwise bleak start to the day. It certainly is a day to rug up in your thermals and uggies.

The lake was angry this morning!

Natures Artwork

Posted on August 17, 2013 by kayakcameraman

17 August 2013: I consider myself one lucky man to be able to witness something so beautiful. This mornings transformation was absolutely sublime, natures colour palate is unmatchable and the pattern configurations that were created by mirrored waters made it such a peaceful way to start the day. I hope that you enjoy the shots.

Chalk and Cheese

Posted on August 11, 2013 by kayakcameraman

What a wonderful weekend it has been and I couldn’t have had two totally different mornings. This is why Lake Burley Griffin continues to blow me away, each day it continually serves me up something new. My pocket rocket Canon PowerShot D20 was working overtime!

Saturday morning’s tones were sublime.

Mid week chance

Posted on August 7, 2013 by kayakcameraman

7 August 2013: It was so nice to be back out on the water and take in a liquid gold sunrise. There was lots of activity on and about the lake this morning as plenty of people were enjoying the calm conditions after the last few turbulent days of weather. There is a cold change forecasted for tomorrow so hopefully I’ll be able to snap shot a few icicles. I hope you enjoy the todays sunrises.

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.
