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.

Spectacular Start
1 September 2013: Golden sunrises, dreamy misty fingers of golden rays, hovering balloons, silhouette swans, crazed reflections and pelicans all made for a delightful start to spring this morning. Spring has started in spectacular style and I can’t wait to see the multitude to colours that Canberra is about to produce. I hope that you enjoy the shots 🙂

Super Dooper Mega WOW
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
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.

Hidden Treasure
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.

Natures Artwork
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
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!

Best of July
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
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
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.
