Crescent Head Trip



In late July I headed south with the goal of capturing some panorama images, as well as some time lapse footage. Originally the plan was to go north, but the forecast for clouds looked much better to the south.
I'm glad for making that decision, as there were a couple of epic sunsets and sunrises.

The sizes listed for each image show the standard print size. Smaller and (a bit) larger sizes are also possible.



31 July - Crescent Head sunrise
On this morning I managed to capture a great sunrise at Pebble Beach, Crescent Head. This image is the result of 8 photos stitched together to produce a panorama. The result can be printed 1.5 metres wide.

I'm pretty happy with the result after getting up at 4:45am.

Crescent Head Rocks

This spectacular rock formation was hidden until the sun came up enough to be able to see clearly. It was a little to tricky to get the tripod in the right position.

Wilderness Waterfall

This peaceful little waterfall was off the side of a dirt track leading to a remote lookout. To get this image I waited nearly an hour for some clouds to cover the sun in order to soften the light.

The fading daylight created a beautiful glow with the sea mist and reflections. This is a series of twelve images stitched together. Each was a 20 second exposure.

Cabarita Beach

The headland at Cabarita Beach has long been a favourite spot of mine for sunrise images. Here the full width of the beach is seen at low tide.

Cabarita Rocks

The tide was one of the lowest I have seen at Cabarita, which meant I was able to get an image of the rocks that are usually under water. In the early morning light the green seaweed was spectacular.

Fingal Head Sunset

20220802 A7r4 049 Pano


Fingal Head is a great location for sunrise, but during winter the sun sets behind the buildings of the Tweed Heads to the north.
This too is a series of twelve images stitched to create a panorama.
