If you haven't glanced forward to the weather forecast in Sydney, it makes for rather pleasant reading. Sunshine and temperatures nudging up towards 30 degrees for the next 7 days and beyond. Reference that with the Sydney September average of 21˚ and all the crazy weather that's been occurring across the globe, and the smoke haze in Sydney right now starts to take on a more sober tone. Time to top up your 50+ and get the hat out of storage.

The south swell has ramped up his morning along with a little mid-period east swell. It was hard finding a runner in any direction at first light at Queenie.... it's shallow and straight except for a rarest of peaky one. I reckon the beaches exposed to the secondary east swell might have been a better bet.

"A Common Thread" - This Friday, the Manly Pacific lobby bar, 55 North, are hosting the opening night of a pop-up exhibition of my photographs as part of the global MGallery Heritage Days. The exhibition will be held among some of the XL pictures I was commissioned to produce for their beautifully styled renovation. Come say g'day, grab a drink and chat all things community and photography from 5pm Friday.
