Loo Paper
The beach was deserted today. It was kinda weird as I saw waves in the waist to chest high range that were surfable/contestable. Not a soul from The Tower to Icebergs…hmmm. Did the rain scare everyone off? ‘Cause it’s been steadily coming down all morning OR are you all queuing up for dunny paper at […]
Byron Charms
Just mention the word ‘Byron’ and you’ll get a reaction from people. Words like ‘busy’, ‘lost it’ ‘exquisite’ and ‘paradise’ come up a lot. Some people adore the place, some people loathe it for its hustle. I’m here in peak season, yeah there are people around (lots from Bondi), it’s got young energy, but the […]
Same-same but different

Not a new camera, something I’ve had in my kit for decades, but usually only rip it out for tripod […]
NZ vs AU
When I left Queenstown it was snowing, right down at town level. Amazing. Only happens twice a year. When I arrived in Bondi the colours were going crazy in the morning sunrise. Rare. It’s like they were competing. Two very special places putting on their best. We had a great time in New Zealand last […]
EOFY
Today it’s all about surfing as the waves are pretty good (but the light not so good). This week’s south swell had dissipated and a new, clean, fresh ENE swell arrived switching on joints like The Bra. It’s around head high on sets, predominantly chest high. Winds are offshore, so it’s lining up nicely. My […]
