1 May 2013: I just love seeing Canberra from a different perspective. This morning I was floating around on the water from 5.30am. Initially it was clear as a bell and I was taking in some awesome lighting reflections from the National Museum and the Commonwealth Bridge. I could see the fog brewing in pre dawn distance down in the wetlands and it wasn’t long before the fog slowly crept in and blanketed the entire lake. This created an amazing atmosphere out there on the water. I am loving the transition from autumn to winter. I hope that you like the shots.

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.
High Voltage Viewing
26 April 2013: What an electric morning. I decided to venture into the wetlands this morning for a peaceful paddle as the winds were up a little. The sky this morning was amazing and the calmness of the wetlands combined together to produce some stunning landscapes scenery. How lucky are we to have something like this on our door step. I don’t think that there would be too many other Capital cities in the world that have a wetland environment five minutes from its CBD. I hope that you enjoy a few snap shots from this morning.
Respect and reflect on Anzac Day
25 April 2013: LEST WE FORGET.This morning was a time to pay respect and reflect on the ultimate sacrifice that all of our diggers have made for us. Your courage, true grit and never say die attitude has allowed my family, friends and myself to live such a wonderful life in this brilliant country. I have put together a sequence from this mornings paddle on Anzac Day. It’s because of you that I am able to experience so many stunning sunrises and sunsets and call Australia home. I thank you!
Autumn Misty Morning
24 April 2013: What a misty morning marvel. It felt that the water temp has dropped a few degrees since yesterday and there was even a light frosting on the windscreen this morning. But it’s conditions like these that produce a mystical feeling out on the water.
Total elegance and sheer beauty.
This is one session that will be etched in my mind for a long time. Total elegance and sheer beauty are the first words I would use to describe the swans. I decided to dedicate an entire blog post of the swan silhouettes from a Sunday morning paddle a few weeks ago. There are no captions, no time references, just the swans themselves. I hope you enjoy.
A Mesmerising Morning
17 April 2013: Out of the darkness and into the light is the perfect way to caption my paddle this morning. Autumn is certainly in the air with the temperature dropping to five degrees overnight. The combination of the clouds and the soft light framed the morning brilliantly and made for a mesmerising start to the day.

Chillaxing all the way but our senses were on fire!
13 April 2013: We had it all this morning, fire red autumn leaves reflecting on glassy water, misty silhouettes, dragon boats, laser sunrises and crystal blue skies. But in true style we just sat back and chillaxed our way through the entire morning, taking it all in and making sure that we didn’t miss a thing. There may have been a chill in the air but the senses were definitely on fire this morning. Yet again I have been treated to an awesome autumn display on Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra.
