C’est le bleu du temps suspendu
Le bleu pur de l’état de grâce
Et de l’éternité qui passe
Sur le firmament étendu..(Renaud Maugey)
It's the blue of suspended time
The pure blue of the state of grace
And eternity that passes
On the extended firmament..(Renaud Maugey)

Was happily snapping away at Merewether Beach when this storm front started rolling in. It seemed like it was swallowing the sun above, which still made a valiant effort to shine through the front. It resulted in some really eerie light, as if the light itself wasn’t sure whether it should be bright and sunny, or dark and gloomy. Like most things it only lasted a short while until the storm hit. Then the sun shine again, as it always does ☀️
Fun fact: Merewether Beach is home to the international surfing competition, Surfest.
cheers :)

Corfe Castle, in the background on the hill minus a roof was built by William the Conqueror and dates back to the 11th century. One of the earliest castles in England to be built using stone when the majority were built with earth and timber.
As for the The Greyhound, it is a scenic relaxed venue that serves Breakfast, Lunch, Afternoon Tea, Dinner and has available takeaway food in the form of Gourmet Fish and chips and Pizza. (from their website)
Just getting back to my favourite thing - beach photography. This is a rockpool at Fingal Bay in Port Stephens NSW where I'll be heading back shortly for a mini-holiday.
Happy weekend out there everyone, and remember, weekends don't count unless you spend them doing something totally pointless ;)
Lake Cawndilla is one of the nine lakes making up Menindi Lakes in south-western NSW. The shallow margins of the lakes are studded with dead black box trees. And I mean lots, thousands. It’s like an alien landscape and quite eerie to walk alone with no one else for many many miles, it’s a very isolated place. It was one of the most memorable places on my recent camping trip. Nothing like camping in a national park with a fire to fend off the cold and the stars above 😀
Hope everyone has been well., cheers.
Another trip down memory lane. This time to 2011 and tropical Cairns in north Queensland. It brings back memories of scuba diving on the outer Great Barrier Reef, a giant friendly Wrasse on the inner reef named Wally, white water rafting in flooded rivers (and being washed over and under and surfacing 100m downstream eventually, all part of the fun)
Ahh, the good old days ;)
Happy Wednesday !
Lake Pukaki, South Island of New Zealand.
"Aotearoa" is the Maori name for the country of New Zealand. The literal translation of Aotearoa is "land of the long white cloud".
Yes, another Cawndilla pic. It was pleading with me to let it come out and play.
Totally unrelated fun fact - there is a small town in Norway called Hell. I want to visit so when I return I can say I’ve been to Hell and back. And yes, I believe it does freeze over. You’re welcome 😀
One from awhile back of a sunrise looking out from the Terrigal rock shelves. I find that colour combo of the orange reflected light from the sun and the green of the weed on the rocks appealing. It reminds me of that old saying “Nature's wake-up call: When the sun rises, even the weeds show off their green glamour” Don’t feel confused if you haven’t heard it before, when I say “Old saying” I mean it’s about 2 hours since I made it up 😜
Enjoy what’s left of the weekend wherever you are! There is 15 minutes left here. And the days start getting longer now , yeeessss!
One of the few summer shots that i managed to take somewhere in Mt.Pilion!

Some of the cool sand-encrusted rock formations at Birubi Beach seem to be saying "this way, come this way to the ocean and the sky"
Totally unrelated fun fact: The weight of all the ants on earth is greater than that of all humans. I'm glad I've always been kind to ants. (I hope they forget that incident with the magnifying glass when I was a kid!)
Glastonbury Abbey... After discovering the remains of King Arthur and Guinevere the abbot relocated the grave just beyond the main tower. Only a cynic would believe the finding of the once and future king's remains was a hoax in order to reboot the flagging coffers of the abbey after a fire. The remains were found in 1191.
Cloudy skies but a ray of hope hitting the base of the Elizabeth Tower (the clock tower with the bell called 'Big Ben' inside it)
Note for Mr Harp...you can see the weird web structure on the bridges in the foreground...sadly not extra terrestrial. :) or is it??? :)
I took this photo at one of the first beaches I used to visit for photography - Spoon Bay. It was also where I lost my first camera to the wave gods. It was also one of the first pics taken with my first Olympus micro 4/3 camera. Lots of firsts. Does the red algae in this photo remind anyone else of War of the World and the red weed?
Did you know that the algae in this shot married some weed? I hear their marriage is on the rocks now 😬 I heard the music at their wedding was quite interesting , all algae rhythms
Humpday here , happy Wednesday when it arrives wherever you are 😀
Long exposure shot during the " blue hour".
