Smoky Cape Beach


HOW I DID IT
This image was taken at Smoky Cape
Beach. It was one of those perfect days –
great company, bright sunshiny day, light
wind. I wanted to grab the moment and
keep the memory of it – the movement of
the birds, the smell of the ocean, the glare,
the sound of the waves, and the blue of
the sky and water. It is deliberately a little
overexposed, as that is how my senses
felt. Post production was in Lightroom
with only minor adjustments to contrast,
highlights, clarity, and cropping.


TECHNICAL DETAILS
Nikon D700, 70-200mm lens @ 200mm,
1/320s @ f2.8, ISO 200, handheld.

Winter Morning Swim

HOW I DID IT
I was visiting Sydney and staying at Coogee where I saw these swimmers braving the cold July conditions
for an early morning swim in the ocean pool. I was capturing the sunrise when I was attracted by the
arrangement of the three people and the beautiful golden light on the waves breaking over the pool.

TECHNICAL DETAILS
Fujifilm X-T1, Fujinon 35mm f1.4 lens. 1/550s @ f4, tripod.
