Frosty and Fantastic

Posted on August 3, 2014 by kayakcameraman

3 Aug 2014: What a start to the morning with minus 5 temps, crystal clear skies, mist dancing on the water. Despite the cold biting at my face and my fingers and toes burning I couldn’t resist paddling further so that I could watch the scenery transform. I was transfixed by the sunrise which rose resembling a pot of gold. Behind me was a soft palette of soft pastel tones. Winter at its best with snow play available in the Brindabella’s and perfect clear skies for all to enjoy

Subtle Sunrise

Posted on July 25, 2014 by kayakcameraman

25 July 2014: Some would prefer to snuggle under the doona or sit by a fireside during the depths of winter but it is so worth experiencing the crisp, cool mornings and the soft winter tones that a Canberra morning has to offer. This morning was undeniably cold with fog shrouding the lake making it difficult to spot fellow paddlers. As expected the morning unfolded to reveal a crystal clear day and even the swans were out to welcome all that ventured out.

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.

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. 🙂

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

19 June 2014: The air was so saturated with moisture that it felt like I was cocooned by damp heavy blanket. The conditions were super calm, the water was glassy and the reduced visibility added another dimension to the morning. I hope you enjoy the photostory.

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.
