This weather is incredible! Not a cloud in the sky at first light and a waxing gibbous moon perched high above. There wasn’t any need for anything warmer than a t-shirt, even at 5:30am. The waves weren’t amazing due to such a low tide but there were plenty of surfers out enjoying the 3 foot ESE swell and the still wind conditions on offer.

I called in to say hello to Bronte Lifeguards – Aza and Mouse. They had just set up the beach and were starting their long day by staring into the sun, making sure no stupid early morning swimmers got them selves in trouble. Everyone should count their blessings that we have such efficient water men on duty these days. It wasn’t always the case in decades gone by.

I just passed up a shoot last weekend in Western Australia, with Mark Mathews and a few of his crazy mates. Unfortunately, other work commitments intervened. I wish I could have been there as it looked pretty exiting. Check out the footage shot by Tim Bonython and see what you think.

Have a lovely day! – Billy
