I did a whole lot more swimming than shooting this morning — it happens when the rips are on turbo. Ramp Two was churning like a white-water ride, and I knocked out a few hot laps before finally finding sanctuary (and firm ground on a shorey bank) long enough to connect a few frames with the local hot rats.
What a magnificent day out there. Bluebird skies, warming rapidly — feels hotter than the forecasted 24. Light ENE winds keeping it relatively clean at Bondaka. Fun little 2–3 footers rolling in, and yep, the crowd has returned (always does when the weather turns on).
I also want to take this opportunity to thank all our wonderful gallery customers who’ve placed their Christmas orders already. We’re a small family business here in Bondi — we print in Bondi, we frame in Sydney, and every artwork is handcrafted one by one with care. When you buy from us, you’re supporting real local makers, not a sweatshop offshore, not a huge multi-national.
Our Christmas order deadlines are looming, but still totally doable for domestic customers (framed ends tonight). If you’re in Australia, order today and we’ll get it to you. And just quietly… we’re sweetening the deal:
• Free Bondi Tote on orders over $500
• Leif Hand Wash on orders over $1,000
• Free Cap with every book sold
A little thank-you from us to you. Shop online now
Have a great day — see you down there for a dip or a wave.
