Underground sea




Having shot the Rockingham area quite frequently I decided that I should expand my photo locations in Perth. I strapped Archer into the car and headed up to Cottesloe to check out a few spots that looked good on satellite photos.

First I dropped into South Cottesloe (or is it Mosman Park?) and checked a couple of small beaches that have some interesting rocks. More interesting and quirky was rounding a corner to see some public fornication, thankfully Archer was oblivious and was much more interested in the pair of dogs being walked behind us.

We left to collect Simone from work and headed to the main Cottesloe beach, I was fairly underwhelmed by the location. But in the right conditions there surely would be some nice setups.

Looking around I counted more tourist photographers per sq/mtr than anywhere else I have ever seen in Perth, everyone was lining up along the beach to take a photo directly into the sunset (Using on camera flashes for extra special effect too... )


After Archer had some fun in the sand we heading north a short distance and found a very nice spot where I setup for the sunset and rolled up my jeans preparing to go into the water. Lots of jumping in and out of the water ensued trying to avoid the larger waves and splashes.

Here we go for this post, I have a feeling you should be seeing some more of this location soon:
