Next Seascape Workshop - Feb 6th & 7th

I've been running these workshops now for about 6 months and they have had fantastic feedback from the participants. I'm putting on another workshop in Feb 2010 for anybody who wants to dramatically improve their seascape photography and post processing skills.

Lithgow Blast Furnace

This is one of my favorite "ruins" to shoot. This photoguide is from David Haworth who has contributed a number of guides to this project (thanks David).

The blast furnace is a really cool place to shoot... lots of interesting shapes, angles, backgrounds etc. It really is one of those "must see" locations in my view. Also makes for some interesting night photography (but I wouldn't shoot this place alone at night).

Manly Beach by Lee Duguid

Hey there fellowPhotogs. I hope Santa filled your stockings with great camera gear...

Here's a new guide from a photographer called Lee Duguid. I met Lee on one of my seascape workshops. He has kindly put together this photo guide for one of Sydney's icon locations, Manly. Now it's not your normal Manly surf beach stuff, but a few alternative locations around Manly that you may want to check out. Some lovely shots and some great ideas.

Happy New Year everybody

Jerusalem Bay

When I grew up we had a cabin cruiser and my Dad would take the family all around the Hawksbury, Pittwater and Cowan Creek. So it was with a touch of nostalgia that I received this guide to Jerusalem Bay from Angus Cameron. If you love bush walking with gorgeous waterway scenery, then I recommend you check out Angus's guide to Jerusalem Bay.

Coalcliff Beach by Herbert

Hi folks
Here's another guide by an Austrian contributor "Herbert". This is for a South Coast location called Coalcliff beach. Funnily enough I am down the coast as I type this, so I might just have to check this location out on my trip back to Sydney.

Enjoy the guide to Coalcliff Beach on the South Coast (60km from Sydney)

Canyon X (also known as Warriewood Blowhole)

Hi folks... It's been a few months since the last photo guide was put up, so I thought it was about time to add another batch. I'll try to add a few over this long weekend.

I have finally written the guide to Warriewood Blowhole... a place that I nicknamed "Canyon X" when I stumbled across it a while back. This is one of Sydney's relatively unphotographed locations mainly because of the access to it.

You can get to it by scrambling over rocks from North Turimetta, or else you can take the exciting route down the fishermans ropes from the cliff. I definitely prefer the rope descent.

Anyway, this location is NOT for the faint of heart, but there are some great rewards to those that do get down the bottom. I hope you enjoy my guide to Canyon X.

Nightcap National Park

Here's another gorgeous guide by Ros and Cheryl Brighouse. I swear their photos are improving with every guide they write. I haven't heard much about Nightcap National Park, but it certainly looks like there is some gorgeous scenery here.

Coffs Harbour

It's great to see some more guides for locations outside of the Sydney and Central Coast area. Here's a guide to Coffs Harbour by Ken Dickson.

Thanks very much Ken for this great guide

Brent

Hastings Point

This is another guide by Ross and Cher for one of the Northern beaches in NSW. Looks like a beautiful spot. It's great to see a few more guides springing up for non-Sydney locations.

Devils Cauldron by Brent Pearson

Here's a guide to one of my favorite Northern Beaches locations (probably in my top 3). It is located about 20 min South of Whale Beach (along the rocks) and I have nick-named it "Devils Cauldron". When you see it in action you will see why I called it this.

A fantastic place to photograph... very dramatic. This is not a location for beginners to Seascape photography as there is a 20 min scramble over the rocks. It is also near an exposed rock shelf, so you need to be very careful of waves out here.

Well worth the effort to get to. I hope you enjoy my guide to Devils Cauldron.

Brent

Mungo National Park

Well I finally got my old man to write a guide.... and it's a good one. This is written by my Dad (and sometimes photographic shooting buddy.... when he takes me...)

He has chosen to write a comprehensive guide to one of the places I am dying to go out and photograph - Mungo National Park. I'm sure he does this just to rub in the fact that he is retired and can shoot whenever he wants while I have to slave away at work.

This is a fascinating guide to an incredibly interesting area. I hope you enjoy reading the guide to Mungo National Park

Brent

Dee Why

Here's a new guide to Dee Why by Johnno (aka Xenedis). Dee Why is a great location to shoot as it has not only a photogenic pool, but also some lovely rocks to the South of the pool. If you keep following the shorline, you even come to a lovely set of stone stairs that seemingly go nowhere.

Enjoy Johno's guide to Dee Why

Seascape Workshop Update

Just a quick note. The first workshop filled up pretty quickly, so I have put on a second workshop that will run on July 27 & 28. There are currently still 3 places left on this workshop, so anybody that would like to really accelerate their seascape photography, this is your chance. See the post below for more details and a link to the workshop details.

Gerringong & Werri Beach

Hey Folks
Here's a new guide from a new contributor Richard Cordell (more new contributors would be great). This is for two beaches just South of Kiama. It's great to get more contributions from outside the Sydney area.

Looks like there are some great locations around the Kiama area.
