Chilly in the Chilli

Posted on July 9, 2014 by kayakcameraman

9 July 2014: It was a chilly paddle in the Red Chilli this morning. The day began with soft subtle tones to the west and the water was like a sheet of glass with light mist dancing on the surface. It didn’t take long for the day begin in stunning style and I was treated to many gorgeous crisp reflections. You know it’s cold when the water turns to ice on the hatch of your kayak. I hope that you enjoy the shots from my icy paddle on LBG this morning.

5 July 2014: Despite the chilly conditions the soft soothing hues and brilliant reflections on LBG made for a pleasant paddle. The glow of the sunrise shone through the belt of aubergine snow clouds that hovered low over the Canberra basin.

Canberra Cloak

Posted on July 2, 2014 by kayakcameraman

2 July 2014: My face was damp, my fingers were fresh and the air was so saturated that it felt like light misty rain was falling. The scenery was surreal, what a great combination! The fog returned to cloak Canberra for the majority of the day but usually once the fog burns off we are be treated to a beautiful winter’s day. I hope you enjoy the shots from my foggy paddle on LBG. 🙂

Unexpected Surprise

Posted on June 28, 2014 by kayakcameraman

28 June 2014: The gorgeous reflections that I experienced this morning was the last thing I expected as the forecast was for windy conditions early on and by mid morning the weather was meant to turn extremely bleak (which it did). I was lucky enough to find this little patch of peace and calm on the section where the Molonglo River meets with LBG. It was here that I was treated to a very pretty start to Saturday. The quote from Pablo Picasso “Everything you can imagine is real” pretty much sums up my morning paddle. I hope you enjoy the photo’s.

Winter Mystery

Posted on June 21, 2014 by kayakcameraman

21 June 2014: It was a mystical paddle on Lake Burley Griffin this morning as the fog rolled in from the east basin continually changing the scenery. The water was super glassy and the sun was trying its best to burn through to lighten up the day. Just when it seemed that the blanket of fog was about lift, in rolled another wave. This made for a wonderful winter’s paddle.

7.06am: The fog seemed to be clearing

Autumn in CBR is Amazing

Posted on June 9, 2014 by kayakcameraman

“A few days ago I walked along the edge of the lake and was treated to the crunch and rustle of leaves with each step I made. The acoustics of this season are different and all sounds, no matter how hushed, are as crisp as autumn air.” This quote by Eric Sloane sums up autumn in Canberra perfectly as it has been absolutely stunning this year. So beautiful, I decided to put a compilation of my favourite autumn experiences. I have been treated to many gorgeous sunrises and sunsets and even bedazzled by hot air balloons drifting on LBG during the balloon festival. Canberra has been amass with a wonderful spectrum of colours as we have transitioned from summer into winter. I hope that you enjoy my photostory of autumn.
