14 metres high, and 110m long Wave!

Sorry, not fishing related but i know alot of you guys like to follow my photography getaways and thought i would share my lates "Box ticked off" location to photograph for more stock photos to sell. Well i had enough of the stress of Perth City and jumped in my car and made the 400klm treck to the world famous wave rock. What a location. As soon as i got there i noticed a few massive problems i was faced with. People every where! Shadows,tree's right up the the wave, no room for a panorama . I even struggles with my 17-55. With i still had the 10-22. I did the best i could then decided to treck to the rock in pitch dark. Pretty eerie in the bush against the rock. but a experience i wount forget. Starts were out and it was a still night. Took some great shots while popping the flash during the 30sec exposure. Took some time settin up the focus in the dark.

how you also caught the jet stream in the photo of your Holden SS.  Lovely photos, love the bush at night, no noise, just sit and listen to nature.  Crunch, crunch, look around and a kangaroo is just near by.  Beautiful photos.

smell of the Aussie bush also.  Love the smell of the bush in Leeman especially when you first come into town, the bush smell hits you, then early in the morning with dew on the bush another different smell.

 

Exceptional photos March you must be so proud, would love to have 10% of the capture of your photos.

 

Last time  we flew to Broome, the monitor on the Qantas flight said minus 50c, had ice crystals forming on the side of the window, freezing.  See so many jetstreams in Leeman when out fishing, something you don't see a lot of in Perth compared to European skies.

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
