That moment when you are shooting on a fisheye, hold your breath for the expected fly by, start convulsing and yet still manage to pull a good shot out the bag! Future freediving instructor ignore last 🫣

Can’t say you’ve been to Cocos if you don’t have a cracker photo of Direction Island! Taken on tour with .au exporting the inner lagoon, swimming with dolphins, not to mention catching a feed!

Something you have to see with your own eyes. I still remember the first time I crossed the lagoon over to Direction Island. I’ve never seen so many different shades of blue in the water
And it’s only 4 hours flight away!!

It’s been a while between posts on IG, a busy year with the business and kids, but there is adventure on the horizon!

March we are heading back to the tropical paradise of the Cocos Keeling Islands, to shoot two weddings! One of the best parts of my job is having the opportunity to travel with it. Bring on that epic blue water, amazing beaches and hanging out with mates enjoying the island life!

YEAOWWWWWWW

Found some more breeding pairs! If you are heading to lake gwelup to see the bee eaters watch where you walk, they put their nests in the most open of spaces…careful with your dogs off leash too!

Captured the vibrant beauty of a rainbow bee-eater! These stunning birds are known for their colorful feathers and agile flight. Found throughout Australia and parts of Southeast Asia, they catch insects mid-air, with a special love for bees. Their striking green, blue, and orange plumage makes them one of the most eye-catching birds in the wild.

I’d love to capture them with a dragon fly mid flight, game on!!

Finally got a shot of the migratory Rainbow Bee Eaters, Merops ornatus. These beautiful little birds migrate the length of WA, I’ve seen them in Exmouth and Port Hedland, and now photographed them in Perth as they come south to nest from September-October. They also make it as far north as PNG and eastern Indo. I’d love to see some tagged research on their movements!

More to come!

The Hawk’s zipping through the sky this morning.

The R5 autofocus held on to this beauty perfectly as it disappeared behind the trees, such a unique shot I’m stoked with it!

Face to face with this rather large cuttlefish yesterday! Poked my head under a ledge and face planted his tentacles, not sure who got more of a fright! He then came out and swam around showing off his amazing colour changing skin and shape shifting to mimic the background! Amazing creatures…and also new front signage pinup creature!

Thanks for the dive 🤙

Bring on another storm like this one!

SPOILER - this is a few years ago when I could leave the house and not have to worry about 3 (4 including Jacs) mouths to feed at sunset :)
