I shoot mostly around the Cronulla Beach front as well as Voodoo, Shark Island, The Point, Solander and even Kurnell Point when it's on. I don't travel overseas much anymore (or not at all since COVID times) so enjoy just shooting locally.

I have lived and surfed in Cronulla my whole life so I do have a good idea what swells work best for the different breaks around Cronulla. I don't shoot everyday, usually only when the surf is good. I generally prefer the afternoons because the light is front lit though I can be found out early in the mornings shooting if the conditions are on. These days I am generally shooting from the beach with my Canon gear and "The Mad Huey", my black and white border collie, by my side. I do get out in the water occasionally with my Aquatech gear.

It was new camera day with the new Canon R1 and I headed down the beach to give it a workout shooting surfing images. Typically when wanting to tryout something new there was very little surf 😊. You can view some of the images I shot by CLICKING HERE to view the Slideshow.

August is running true to form with not much swell. I have only shot a couple of times during the month with only a very small swell running each time. Images for the month are now being posted in the August Slideshow.

June 2023 has been a poor month for surf so far so I have not shot until recently with the small swell that has started to run. Let’s hope there is a bit more swell for the rest of the month so that I can get a few more images to add to the Slideshow.

These images were shot at Voo Doo (Potter Point) mid morning on Friday 5 May 2023. The swell was small but fun on an out going tide fanned by a light north westerly wind. The images were shot with a Canon R3 and a Canon EF800mm f5.6 lens. CLICK HERE to view the Slideshow. CLICK HERE to view the Video on YouTube
