Two more from the Turimetta Beach series, I was lucky with the timing when I captured Crash and Flow is a 3-exposure HDR that grew on me as I played with the colours and processing more.
Rush and Promise
While at Turimetta Beach on the 11th April, I was experimenting with longer exposures as the waves crashed in and receeded through the channel between the rocks.
Reprocessed – Beam of Light
A couple of days and a fresh pair of eyes can make all the difference.
I’ve reprocessed the images of the Beam of Light I shot at Turimetta Beach because the colour was just all wrong – too much cyan, too much saturation in parts.
I hope you like these better. I won’t tell the story again – read the original post for that. But enjoy these images.
Beam of Light at Turimetta Beach
It was my first visit to Turimetta Beach on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. I hadn’t been there before, but it’s certainly now made an impression on me. It’s a fantastic secluded location near Narabeen, with some beautiful rock structures and formations that give amazing opportunities for seascapes with an interesting foreground. After an uninspiring first hour or two, a break in the clouds out over the ocean gave us our money shot. A magnificent beam of light shone through the clouds into the ocean and finally gave us a focal point to compose around.

Our Take on the Funny Photo Poses
Our own collection of funny photo poses – the harder it is to take the photo, the better the photo turns out? You be the judge
Some new photos and an apology!
Sorry to anyone receiving malware warnings from my site in the past few days – it’s all fixed now. On a lighter note, here’s some photos from a great weekend away Kate and I had at Port Stephens.
Beacons in the Sky
The two brightest planets in our Solar System, Venus and Jupiter, shining brightly like beacons in the sky as they joined for a conjunction in March 2012. The Sunset colours and clouds in the sky complete the scene in what was a stunning dusk and sunset.
Photos from Avoca
These photos round out the session from Avoca on the 11th March, where I captured Sunrise Contemplation. I’m reasonably happy with the mornings efforts, despite the lacklustre sky early on. I’m keen to get out there again soon.
Killcare Seascape Panoramas
In the last of my set from Killcare Beach, these seascape panoramas consist of 4 images each stitched together using AutoPano Pro. They’re a lovely way to finish this series, it was a great morning and processing them has inspired me to get out again soon.
