Eastern Beaches (Coogee) Landscape Photography Workshop / Course

Due to popular demand for more locations to be made in Sydney for my group courses I have created the Eastern Beaches Landscape Course that will be run on Coogee Beach and the surrounding coastal area. The courses will run with the same outline, objectives and content as my Northern Beaches, Blue Mountains and Sydney City Courses.

The first Eastern Beaches Course is set to run on the 21st of November 2010.

Full details and further dates for this course can be found by clicking here.

Australia’s Amazing Dust Storm

On the 23rd of September 2009 people on the eastern states of Australia awoke to an amazing site. The glow in the sky could only be described as something similar to that of a major bush fire nearby.

Over the news they described the event as once in a life time and the worst dust storm on record. Flight were diverted from Sydney airport to Brisbane and a staggering 75 thousand tones of dirt was being dumped on Australia every hour.

These shots are taken around 7.30am on the 5D Mark II. On returning home my hands were stained red from the dirt and my camera gear was coated as well. They estimated that the clean up bill is in the 10’s of Millions as a result of this even. By mid day it was mostly gone with just a slight haze.

I have uploaded a video to Vimeo showing you some of the shots taken and how amazing the light was straight out of the camera. Click here to go to the link.
