Smashing it up on Bramble Bay in Queensland, Australia this afternoon. I love that when I pull out the long lens and the kite surfers are more than happy to put on a show. These guys are fearless risking life and limb to pull off some gnarly moves.  I love this urban dictionary meaning “Gnarly is when you’ve gone beyond radical, beyond extreme, it’s balls out danger, & or perfection, & or skill or all of that combined.” I’m pretty sure that these guys have their balls firmly tucked away safely in their wetsuits.

Setting my camera to sports mode, continuousness shooting, my memory card was full in no time.  500 odd shots taking in Raw + 5184 x 3456  I forgot to check my settings.  I should have shot in jpeg only which would have allowed me to rip out more shots.

I must get some fluidicthought business cards make up with this blog and my instagram details on it so I can leave my card if people I photograph want to check themselves out or request copies. I’m more than happy to give them the photographs.

Last time I photograph and posted the kite surfers I wrote fludicthought.com in the sand on the off-chance one of the guys saw it and was curious enough to come and take a look. As they exit the water fighting to control their kites, I guess they really haven’t got time to read notes left in the sand. I remember thinking back then if I had a card I’d leave it on their gear on the shore.

“Freezing Antarctic air is set to bring sub-zero temperatures and an almost even chance of snow to Queensland’s far south.

The so-called “Antarctic vortex” sending the mercury plummeting south of the border is due to turn the Sunshine State into the warm, cosy blanket state from early Sunday morning.” quotes the Brisbane Times  yesterday.

Today I was sunning myself on the balcony and this is my view of Bramble Bay in the outer Brisbane area.

  It certainly has cooled off and the wind has picked up but if you find a sunny patch out of the breeze, winter in Queensland isn’t too bad. How is everyone else in the state doing? Anyone would think the ‘White Walkers” were coming, if you go by the news.

Fog

Fog can be considered a type of low-lying cloud, and is heavily influenced by nearby bodies of water, topography, wind conditions, and even human activities. Infra-red cooling of a cloud-free, humid air mass at night can lead to fog formation – this is called “radiation fog”. Radiation fog is most common in Autumn, when nights get longer, air masses begin to cool, and land and water surfaces that…
