Stormy Morning at Avalon Beach, Sydney, NSW, Australia
While meteorologists are still struggling to predict weather our ancestors already created some “formulas” that work: Weather Lore.
Red sky at morning, sailor take warning;
Red sky at night, sailor’s delight.
Works perfectly.

Nobbys Beach and Nobbys Head, Newcastle, New South Wales (NSW), Australia
Nobbys, the commanding island at the mouth of Newcastle Harbour is the most prominent landmark in Newcastle. First described by Captain Cook in May 1770 as ‘a small clump of an island lying close to shore’, it has become a symbol recognisable to all in the Hunter Region and far beyond. It is the location of Nobbys Head Lighthouse, the third lighthouse built in New South Wales after the Macquarie Lighthouse in 1818 and the Hornby Lighthouse which was also built in 1858.

Sydney Harbour Bridge at Night, Sydney, New South Wales (NSW), Australia
Sydney Harbour Bridge is international icon for Sydney and Australia. It is the widest and one of the longest steel arch bridges in the world. The bridge was planned in the early 20th century to span some 500m of harbour between the Sydney CBD and North Sydney, as part of a major upgrade of the Sydney city transportation network, which included the City Circle underground railway. The bridge was designed to take two rail lines from Wynyard Station in the CBD to Milson’s Point in North Sydney – as well as six lanes of road traffic, two tram lines and a footpath on each side. After decades of argument and evaluations, onsite works started in July 1923, the main arch began in October 1928, and the structure opened for traffic in March 1932.

Stanwell Park from Bald Hill Lookout, Illawarra, New South Wales (NSW), Australia
One of the most difficult things for me in the photography is breaking my own stereotypes. If I saw a photo of another photographer or a place somewhere and already pre-visualised how I want to photograph that place, it’s quite difficult for me to shoot it with a different light or angle. I always try to change my mind. Sometimes it’s easy and sometimes it’s quite hard. I saw that view a few years ago driving along the coastal road and since then I wanted to shoot this view with some specific light. It wasn’t on the top of my shooting list so I returned back only a few years later. I was expecting good light that morning, but unfortunately when I reached the lookout heavy clouds covered the entire sky. Alas! Well… a good landscape photographer should wait for the proper light, returning again and again trying to catch the best possible light for that place. On other hand a good travel photographer should be able to capture the scene at any light as he or she will not be able to return and re-shot the place when the light is right. A dilemma! It’s good if you can return to a place like Turimetta beach again and again and finally catch an amazing light. But what if you cannot do that? That happened with this image as well. You have to use the available light. Absolutely not what I wanted before but I like it. In black and white with long exposure it looks good as well.
