Went out very early last Saturday morning with Peter and Tatiana to shoot Bare Island, La Perouse just south of the Sydney airport.
I got out of the car and was blown straight back in the wind was that strong!! Option 2 suggested by Peter was Long Bay, Malabar, which is a nice little sheltered Bay……….just behind Long Bay Jail.
It was still windy and cold but we did manage to get some photos before the weather beat us into submission. There was only one thing for it…..hot breakfast and coffee. We did have to wait 15 mins for the cafe to open but it was well worth it.

Maaate! Exquisite – in every sense.
Thanks mate, well worth freezing the proverbial off.
BTW, forgot to ask, have you had that Black Shiraz yet? If so, what did you think?
Cheers.
