An hour before this photo was taken, we had a colourful sunset at the same spot at Lincoln's Rock. I saw this storm rolling in and hung around for a short while after sunset to get this. Soon after this, I made a beeline for the car.

This was taken nearly four years ago. Since then, unfortunately, Lincoln's Rock has been closed for becoming a bit too "Instafamous"

You know summer is on the way when the sunrise trip includes Aeroguard, Crocs and iced coffee. This is an hour south of Sydney, worth the drive for this clear sky and orange glow. Others were parked nearby, watching from their camper vans. Great way to start the day.

Looking up at Tower Bridge back in 2018 on a trip to visit family. I’m heading back this coming January, but this time with my Wife - because as much as I love my camera, she sparks more joy.

Sunrise over Long Reef Beach as the local surf lifesavers get stuck into some early morning IRB training. Always impressive watching these crews out practicing in the water before the day even gets going.

Early morning light hitting Bondi Icebergs and the Sydney skyline in the distance. A quiet perspective from above before the rest of the city wakes up.

Bondi Icebergs started in 1929 when local lifeguards wanted a way to keep up their swimming fitness through the winter months, turning it into the world's only licensed winter swimming club. To keep their memberships active, members historically had to compete three out of four Sundays for a stretch of five years.

Happy World Photography Day. 📷

Caught this view from above at Catherine Hill Bay as the sun broke through a heavy layer of clouds right over the ocean. There's always something cool about watching the light catch the water and stretch all the way down to the shore.

On this morning a couple of months ago, it was eerie and calm but a great way to start the weekend. A few people were out for walks around the bay, including a few fellow Western Sydney guys enjoying a morning coffee. I love some of the random interactions I have with others while I'm shooting sunrises.

Although this scene looks quiet, peaceful and remote, it's conveniently close to the city. This heavily rusted hull is at Sawmilers Reserve.

It was a "hopper" barge, meaning it featured opening doors on the bottom of the hull operated by chains. It was towed around the harbour to collect silt, mud, and rock from dredging operations and then carry it out to sea to be dumped. During the 1960s, the barge broke free from its moorings during a storm. It drifted across Berrys Bay and ran aground on the mudflat right against the bank of what is now the reserve. Because it was an old, unpowered workhorse, it wasn’t deemed worth the high cost of salvage. It was simply left behind to the elements.

Later this year, it will be ten years since my wife bought my first SLR camera. In that time, this was one of the best sunrises I've seen, at Mahon Pool in February 2023. Taken with a long exposure of 25 seconds, this smooths out the water and shows cloud movement. The colour from this morning topped it off.

As a Sydneysider, we are spoilt for choice when it comes to beaches and rock pools. This is another one I added to my image collection last year, in Avalon on the Northern Beaches. I always enjoy making the trip up that way, such a chilled vibe and a great way to start the day.
