Mini tiny nano waves this morning. Clean, I'll give them that…
This morning was a little in-between. In-between stormy and sunny, in-between wet and dry, in-between Summer and Winter (Autumn !). It looks now that the day has chosen its side: blue and sunny. That's good news !
The swell should remain small, but with 17sec period, it could be fun and the right moment of the tide, and with the right kind of board.
On a different note, the FROTHERS Gallery and the Fashion Weekend Sydney have been partering up, and some amazing shots of famous Mr Brad Malyon, Dave Campbell, as well as Mr G will be exhibited in the VIP Lounge from Thursday 15th to Sunday 18th May. Go check it out !

The South corner of Bondi is doing some magic today. Barrel fest. Not always super clean and closing out randomly, but some gems are coming through still.
Sorry for the late one, but my week has been a bit of a bumpy road.
This allowed me however to give my new Nikon D4s a road test and shoot the lunch break shift, as opposed to the the brekky shift. I was frothing to try this new beast. Lucky enough to see the sun popped, but it's gone now already.
The weekend is on our doorstep. Good news.
Have a great day and a good weekend.

This morning was pumping in Bronte, for those who don’t mind to get on the rinse program from time to time, and who are fine with the cold offshore.
Now that being said, I allowed myself a quick paddle yesterday, and the water feels like a hot bath. You’re actually warmer off paddling than standing on a rock with a cold metal tripod and a camera ! We were down to single digit temperature this morning at sunrise !
Bonte’s overhead. Big enough, but small enough that it is not saturating. Forget about Bondi: it’s Closeout-Land !
The week should be pretty decent swell wise and clear winter weather should hold for a few more days.
Have a great day !

This last swell was gone as soon as it arrived. Like a bank-job. In and out !
Regardless, the water is still great, the temperature today was decent (a lot warmer than tomorrow should be) and the sun was out, big time !
So, enjoy the day if you're already off. And for everyone else: only 8 hours to go !
Cheers !

There is a pulse: the Ocean’s alive !
But why wasn't it as alive and kickin' when Parko was here paddling in the Bay?!
It's a bit junky out there in Bondi, and a lot cleaner in Tama/Bronte, even though it also looked a bit smaller. But in this haystack, you could easily find the needle.
And how about the light, this pretty autumn light in the offshore sprays?! How about this light golden hues ?! Man, i love those mornings !
It just makes waking up early feel like a treat, after feeling like torture.
Have a great day.

A great day starting ! A killer Tuesday that make you forget Monday.
Waves a a tiny notch bigger than yesterday, but very nice and clean. And again, the South end bank in Bondi was doing its magic. If you were making the section, you got finish on the sand.
I guess with less water, and if the wind stays still, it could be looking good. And with this 26 degrees on the dial and the blue sky, there is no reason to stay inside, unless you have to slave away till the weekend. And for those of you/us, I am sorry.
Have a great day !
