Winter Beach Walk
The end of a glorious winter day in Port Macquarie, Mid-north Coast, NSW, Australia and a pair of beach walkers near the end of their perambulations as they pass a lone fisherman trying his luck.

This shot was made from the southern slope of Tacking Point, Port Macquarie, Mid-north Coast, NSW, Australia.

The Making of 'Winter Beach Walk':

A different year but the same season and time of day as 'Fishing is for the Birds' and the ultra-bright conditions were the same except this time there was no wind. I used the ND4 and polarising filters again to combat the brightness and glare.

The seventeenth in a series of nineteen waterscape photographs chosen by the developers of Coast Apartments in my home town of Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia. The large black and white prints grace the walls of the foyers, gymnasium and lift on permanent display in the luxury complex.

The series gives the viewer a journey from the Hastings River, that runs through the town and down the coast to The Gap at Diamond Head Beach in the Crowdy Bay National Park.

Enjoy!

  Beautiful composition, Dennis. And I like the tonal depth, from very dark to very bright. Well done!

  Another really great image, in b+w, Dennis! Love the different points happening in this image, but the long shadows bring it all together.
