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.

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.

Misty Morning Delight

Posted on May 15, 2014 by kayakcameraman

15 May 2014: It’s was as if I were teleported to another place. I love my misty morning paddles and the atmosphere that it creates. This morning the sky was clear, the conditions were smooth and soft tones were radiating. Then just on sunrise the fog and mist slowly crept in to create a totally different mood out on the water. This is why I enjoy paddling on Lake Burley Griffin as the transformation took place within 30 minutes to produce some spectacular scenery. I hope that you enjoy the photostory of my misty morning paddle.

Paddler in the Mist

I’m loving autumn in Canberra.

Change of Scenery

Posted on April 18, 2014 by kayakcameraman

18 April 2014: LBG definitely had an alpine feel about it this morning with mist hovering in the valleys and the surrounding mountains. At 5.45am the sky was clear and I was being treated to some very soft morning tones. The scenery changed dramatically when the fog rolled in from the East Basin blanketing the entire lake and creating a mystical scene.

5.39am: Cruising on glassy waters 🙂
