Seascape of Collaroy Beach, Australia

It has been high tide at sunrise for a while and not conducive to a good photo so we were pleased to finally be out shooting again. With the tide receding and a decent amount of wind creating some nice movement in the water and a dramatic sky, all the elements came together.

Black and white Seascape of Collaroy Beach, Australia

I've only shot at Collaroy once before so not familiar with its nuances. I had to quickly look around for interesting possibilities and there were a few. I stop and watch the way the waves move around and over the rocks then look for a position to stand. Sometimes this means I get wet, which I did today. I come prepared for that. You do what it takes.

  As a local Sydneysider, I never get tired of this walk or this view. Today I was thinking how incredible this would be for a visitor to our beautiful city. It's an easy walk with loads of cafes and eateries or picnic spots along the way as well as a few must-do detours. You could do it in a couple of hours walk or even make a day of it.   What you'll need: Water bottle Opal Card Good walking shoes  Snacks or money for a coffee Start: Wynyard Station End: Circular Quay Distance: Around 7km 1.  Wynyard Exit 1 to Wynyard Park 2. City Turn right and walk down York. Just before Grosvenor, cross over York at the light, then across Clarence at the Zebra crossing. You'll come to a walkway that goes under the road. Follow is through to Kent street. Walk down Kent until you come to the Observatory Hill entrance on the right. It is well signed so just follow up the steps.  3. Observatory Hill Walk to the left of the Observatory buildings, you'll see Barrangaroo and Crown...

Top Things To Do In London - Spitalfields and The Huguenot homes of Fournier street - a little history walk through London

-

With my good friend, Russ, occasional walking guide and history enthusiast I had the fortunate pleasure of being transported back in time, experiencing London in quite a unique way. When I may have simply passed by oblivious to its significance, Russ pointed out a snippet and anecdote that made the walk a much more enjoyable experience. Things got messy in France under  King Louis XIV  around 1685 forcing The Huguenots (Protestants) to leave the country. Around 50,000 of them settled in England, around half in London and many around the Spitalfields streets we walked through today. These homes were built in the 18th century. As silk weavers and clockmakers, the Huguenot's homes were a combination of workshop and living space. These are the largest group of Georgian built homes that still remain standing in London and are currently grade ii listed buildings, which means every effort must be made to preserve them. Mostly, these homes are renovated on the inside and fetch hu...

Juvenile Eastern Whipbird drops by for a visit

Image
  My walk on Thursday, went from Lindfield down Symons Track, under Fullers Bridge and toward Chatswood golf course. On the little trail before the golf course, I heard a scurrying in the bushes and a little muffled squelching.  I saw two Whipbirds amongst the brush. The regular blue-headed Whipbird I had seen frequently but I have never seen this brown coloured one. So I quickly photographed it then once home used my Merlin app to identify it as a Juvenile Eastern Whipbird. The adult Eastern Whipbird peers at me through the bushes. I always get excited when I see a new variety or a different version of a bird.  I get a lot of ridicule from serious bird people but I hope I never lose the thrill of these new discoveries. Official Name: Eastern Whipbird,  Psophodes olivaceus,  Eupetidae Location: Coastal band of Eastern Australia Habitat: Dense vegetation near the ground and close to waterways Conservation Status: Secure For more information go to  BirdLife A...
