Any Good?

Really pretty morning out on the beach front this morning. Soft pastels before the sun popped up and some rich warm light once the sun was free of the horizon. It's the kind of crisp, clear air…

Capitulate

The swell finally capitulated to the strong offshores that have been blowing for days. We had a good run of swell but yesterday it flatlined and this morning there's just a hint of a pulse. It's mostly flat…

Allure

Another bountiful morning out on the ocean. Clean conditions and a couple of metres of south swell groomed by cool offshores. All in all, a pretty tidy offering of waves for a Friday. I didn't shoot…

Different

There's good ones about this morning. Yesterday's wintery change has brought with it a lively south swell with solid lines marching over the bombie and shaping up as decent peaks…

The Chills

Genuine winter's day out there in Sydney today! It's cold and wet with a brisk sou'wester chilling the bones. It was sub 10˚ when I left the house before dawn and it hasn't warmed up much since. A not-so-subtle…

Flat Line

Flat light and a flat ocean out there this morning. There's not a heap of energy except for the odd set of 1-to-2 footers out of the south-east. It's most certainly bigger the further up the beaches you travel; even Queenscliff …

Winter Rise

Winter is upon us and we were treated to a distinctly wintery sunrise in tone and colour. A full sky of cool pinks and blues as the sun made its way through the clouds in a very northern part of the sky…

User Friendly

Sensational morning! The swell's dropped a bit of energy and angled around to the east a touch making for much more user-friendly conditions. It's 2ft with the odd 4 footer, offshore, clean and tidy. The banks are a little…

Low Light

Wasn't much light around this morning however a decent jump in the swell made up for it. For the photography geeks out there, most of today's picture were captured at ISO3200. It's about as high as…

Signature

Feels like things are back to normal this morning. The clear, crisp air and light sou'wester's are back along with that soft light that is the signature look of a clear autumn morning. I reckon…

Rewards

After a week of persistent strong onshore's and heavy rain, the weekend of waves was a just reward for enduring the weather. All day offshores, glassy conditions and a decent nor'east ground…

Hiatus

The sun's made a comeback this morning after a hiatus behind a curtain of rain the last couple of days. The sun's out but the wind is still fiercely onshore and there's the odd spot of rain showers…

Before

Before the showers rolled in from the south, it was a morning just like any other this week. Mild, clear and sunny with light winds and minimal swell. The waves were small at first light but there's a sense…

Still

A very fine morning to unsheathe the log, paddle out and see what the ocean offers up. It's still both in the air and on the water and every now and then there's a little bump served up…

Poppy

We've had an amazing run of east swell feeding us peaking fun-size waves for over a week now but sadly it's finally lost it's mojo. The predominant swell this morning seems to be a weak-ish…

Brisk

It's proper cool out there this morning! A very wintery morning with brisk sou-westerly winds and an increasing south swell running up the coast. Low tide and south swell isn't usually a combination…

Good Good Friday

A rainy Wednesday seems like a good time to flashback to a Good Good Friday that may well go down in the annals as one of the best days of surfing at Queenscliff Bombie. On a day where a lifetime of commitment…

Inviting

Good day to be back on the tools. Yesterday I literally took a rain check, one glance out the window and I retreated to the espresso machine and toaster. This morning was a whole different…
