Hi Frothers !
Surf’s up guys ! It’s not perfect, but every beach will get waves today, as you’ll see in the shots. We’re looking at 3-5ft runners, under a pretty nice weather, and no wind. What a pleasure to see the sun again. It won’t last long, but it’ll make a great Friday for those who can ”work from home” or sneak out early with a towel and a board already packed in the car. Make the most of today, Frothers ! Have a great weekend. Franck (instagram: @franckgazzola) |
Hi Frothers !
This morning, we were in between. In between clouds and blue sky. In between mushy waves, and nice clean rides. In between Winter and Summer temperatures.
The Sun was trying to negotiate its way through the thick layer of clouds at sunrise, but the wind decided not to help. Zero wind.
Despite the many close-outs, and deceiving wave, there were a lot more people in the water, trying to find the needle in the haystack.
This improving trend should reach its peak tomorrow morning, before the clouds & wind strike again. Be there !
Have a good day.

Hi Frothers !
Waves = messy and average. Weather = cloudy and average, but on the improve. People = not that many. Colours = none. Sub-total = not very exciting.
But because there is (almost) always something going on at the beach, even on a dull day like today, I found joy in witnessing this young man kneeling down on the beach in front of his Mrs to propose. I stopped breathing and pointed the camera at them…Click. Click. No wait for it…wait for it. Yes ! She said yes !
I wonder how many people have proposed on this very beach…
Hopefully tomorrow there will be surf, colours and proposals.

Hi Frothers !
I landed late last night from Fiji, and was frothing to hit our local beach in the morning to get back to the daily photographic routine, after 9 months of intense travelling.
So I woke up early and looked outside: grey, rainy, windy, & cold. The depressing combo. I thought I was back to Summer, but I feel we’re back in typical Winter day of July. What happened to Summer ?!
So instead, I’ll share a few shots from Fiji, as I think they’re far more worth your time than rainy shots of the ‘burbs.
Tomorrow should be looking much better for a stroll amongst the sculptures at sunrise. I’ll be there.
Sunny or rainy, It still feels awesome to be back in the Eastern bubble…This place rocks !
See you soon out there.

Bula Frothers,
When Cloudbreak decides to switch on (despite the wind), it’s on !
And as the size of the waves increases, the crowds shrink, leaving the entire place to just a happy (& skilled) few. Lifeguard and waterman Sean Woolnough was one of them, and he made the show during this epic sunset session.
I’m sure a lot of you could easily picture themselves in those barrels.
Now, take 5 minutes to mind-surf and get back to work !
Cheers,
Franck
