16 June 2013: Calm conditions were responsible for smooth water which in turn made for a super serene Sunday morning paddle.

Marbled Transformation
12 June 2013: As I paddled my way up into the wetlands this morning I was met with marbled skies and mirror reflections. Yet again I was treated to another beautiful pastel transformation. On my return I noticed that the containment lines had been removed from the new Kingston foreshore development site which gave me a chance to have a sneak peak and capture a few early progress shots.
Marvellous Morning Transformation
10 June 2013: I’m still blown away by this mornings light show. What a transformation, what a spectacle, there is no better way to start the day! I’m going to throw straight into the photos, so enough with all of my ranting and raving. I hope you like this mornings photo story.
It was a nice early start to the day.
Silhouette Sunrise
3 June 2013: What a stunning silhouette sunrise this morning. I really didn’t expect to be paddling amongst crystal clear skies and sub zero temperatures after the rainy weekend that we just had. I can tell that we are definitely in winter now as my finger and toes are still thawing out from this morning’s frosty float on Lake Burley Griffin. I always return back so calm and peaceful after a paddle into the wetlands. How could you not when there are so many stunning silhouette reflections. I hope that you enjoy the photos.
The morning began with crystal clear skies and calm conditions.
A Winter Transformation
1 June 2013: Winter started in true style this morning by lighting up the skies with beautiful pastel tones. We began with deep pre-dawn pinks which slowly built in intensity. It seemed as though I had witnessed nature’s palate for pinks, mauves and purples which slowly progressed to a stunning sunrise glow. It wasn’t long before the heavy clouds rolled in from the west quickly extinguishing all colour and soon it felt like I was paddling in a world of black and white. This was one amazing transformation.

Soft start to the week ahead.
27 May 2013: Super soft tones and marble skies certainly eased me into the working week. The calm conditions on Lake Burley Griffin made for mirror like water that cast magic reflections. It was a crispy start Canberra with the temperature dropping below zero, but you soon forget about the cold when you have a wonderful morning transformation like this taking place. I hope that the snap shots ease you into your working week ahead.
Fog Mystique and Beauty
25 May 2013: I hope that you enjoy this massive photo story from this mornings foggy paddle on LBG. I just love the mystique and beauty of a thick blanketing fog. I was cocooned by fog that was like pea soup this morning and it created one of the best atmospheres that you could ever ask for. This lake never cease to amaze and astound me, I just love how the fog rolls through in waves. One minute you think that it’s going to clear, only to discover that it thickens even more. Then you have the sun trying its best to burn through the thick mist to reveal a crystal blue sky. This is why I love kayaking and photography, every day is a new adventure!
Surreal Sunrise + Balloons = Unique Canberra Landscape.
May 9, 2013: Dancing mist on the water, balloons hovering overhead and a smooth sunrise was the perfect combination to start the day. The mist rolled in from the wetlands at 5.45am chasing me into the main basin. This gave Lake Burley Griffin a totally different persona and it wasn’t too long before the morning sun burnt through to reveal a beautiful autumn day here in Canberra.
6.12am: A misty start to day.
TOTALLY IMMERSED
May 8, 2013: What a transformation! It’s one of the best sunrises I have taken in for a while. Simply stunning is one way I could describe my experience out on water this morning. I found myself totally immersed in an amazing natural light show that was just brilliant. Paddling and photography are opposites but yet they complement each other so much. This is why I love it, because when you are out here you are only looking for the nice in the day and everything else just gets put on hold. Floating away on the water allows me to be plunged into a world of natural beauty where it provides me such peace and contentment; I just love greeting each day like this. I hope that you like the shots as much as I have enjoyed taking them.
A Perfect Order
27 April 2013: A pink sunrise, a full moon and balloons were on my order this morning and Lake Burley Griffin served up it perfectly. This allowed for myself and a few mates to have an extremely relaxed paddle.
