Streaky Bay
Eyre Peninsula
During low tide, Streaky Bay's shallow waters are amazing to walk on. Just a thin layer of water along a very flat stretch of water which on the day, was very warm and matched the prevailing air temperature. Our little girl Charlotte enjoyed her first gentle introduction to the ocean while picking at shells and small crabs at her feet.
To see some of our trip, I've compiled a video of Eyre Peninsula here: Eyre Peninsula in 1080p

Had a fairly awesome shooting experience last night. Even if I had come out of it with no images to share it would have been a pretty cool night. My ten year old son and I met Charlie Widdis out at Pine Point to see if we could catch some low tide sand formations against the stars. The lights from OOB on the right here washed out a good portion of the stars but the glow coming off Camp Ellis directly ahead adds some nice color and interest I think along with providing light for some highlights along my foreground.
The shoot itself was like a science field trip for my son. There was some cool bioluminescence in the sand that caused points of light to shoot out from your footsteps as we walked in the dark. Some sort of large water creature continuously leaped out of the shallow bay to our left and he got to witness a whole colony of hermit crabs along the shoreline being terrorized by larger crabs that would dart in and grab a snack before receding into the sea. Amazing what you can find on the beach at one in the morning.
This shot was meant to be a vertical panorama with about 15 shots extending up into the night sky. Apparently however I am the worlds' worst panorama stitcher and I couldn't get it to work out so here is a standard size presentation. Again the subtlety of the image seems to be lost in translation when viewed on brighter screens but I always process with printing in mind so images often may appear lighter than they should.
Could'nt believe the fog this morning no more than 40 metres visiblity, the air was very heavy and wet and I think the highest tide all year.

Tidal Barn
This was taken on a dark eerie night unsure whether the silent incoming tide was going to reach the barn. It’s was my first visit so a night shoot wasn’t the best conditions for the highest tide. I used the head torch to focus the camera on the barn then all lights off apart from gently light painting it during a long exposure shot.

While scanning the beach for something interesting to shoot I came across this quirky little tidal pool. Quirky because it has several small volcano like features which continually percolated. It was raining very hard at the time, so out came the shower cap for camera protection while I set up the tripod about a foot off the ground. Once I found the composition I flipped the shower cap out of the way of the lens and captured this shot. 17mm @ f/11, 1/5 sec.
I was fortunate enough to find a fast flowing fresh water stream nearby to rinse off the tripod feet. Sand can do a nasty number on the leg locks.
Tidal Bore Rafting
Feel the rush of riding waves that can be up to 4 metres (13 feet) high in a Zodiac boat as the power of the world’s highest tides in the Bay of Fundy turn the Shubenacadie River into a water roller coaster only found in Nova Scotia.
While walking back to camp after some sunrise photography along the coast we tumbled upon nice light on a stretch of tidal marsh and of course had to stop. Over 20% of Acadia National Park consists of various types of wetlands which in many areas provide a transition between the rocky coasts and forested areas on the 20+ named mountains that form Mt. Desert Island.

A peninsula of fractured and worn rocks next to the tidal zone.
As I wrote in another recent post, what I thought would be a quick visit to this cove turned into a rather longer one. As I started my visit I wasn’t sure that I would photograph here, but once I started looking around I found plenty of interesting subjects. After well over an hour I finally tore myself away to go photograph something else!
The location encompasses a shallow cove lined with rocks, some of which are flat and gradually head under the water, and others that are part of a small peninsula blocking the area from the open ocean. The intertidal zone is full of fascinating things — living creatures, pebbles left behind by the surf, and a pavement of upended strata. In this photograph I backed off some distance and put a long lens on the camera so that I could include the foreground boulders along with a small portion of the flat area and the rocky wall of the peninsula beyond.

The Tidal Reed Garden seen in the foreground fascinated me. These lights contantly moved with the movement of water. In the background is of course the Opera House. The offical description is:-
Artist: Aura (Gioia Murray and Louise Jarvis)
Country: Australia
"Tidal Reed Garden is a bed of artificially produced reeds that float along the line of a harbour wharf. At night the reeds become glowing, sculptural illuminations that cast dancing reflections on the water.
Each reed is shaped to mimic a natural water reed and are animated by the swell of the water, movements in the tide and wash from passing ferries.
Tidal Reed Garden celebrates the beauty and power of elements in nature."
This is a photo of a tidal pool, which in this vertical orientation suggests a portal to another dimension.
In the bay of the Mt Saint Michel, the tidal bore rises at an average of 3.6km/h hence the common expression: "Here, the sea rises at the speed of a galloping horse." This phenomenon is impressive and often surprises visiting tourists who can end up stranded if not following the surrounding authorities' advice or instructions.
If you happen to visit this architectural wonder, you must hire a guide and walk around the bay to experience this natural phenomenon. It is not uncommon for guided groups to stop and wait for the tide to reach their feet, to feel the uncanny force of the current rising to one's knees in seconds. Of course, local guides know the area like the back of their hands so this practice remains safe.
If you are lucky enough, you may even spot seals riding the current to catch a snack as life flows back into the bay!
Sunset, clouds and tides all worked. Tide pools are starting to come out as we move to the winter beach.
