Roboftheland
wow
drec replied
Looking at doing this one better, just need a decent storm to land on surfers
Roboftheland
i reckon the storm will ruin the best feature – the flat blue reflection – better edit in the lightning
Helen Corr
this is so beautiful … surfers never looked so good – brilliant work!
drec
It can look good on occasions, you could hear the parties starting and the echo of the restaurants and bars bins being emptied of glass floating across the water

drec replied
It can be, some just know the seedy side of the night life and dismiss the place.

You do terrific work. Lightning shots in your portfolio are inspiring me. Got a kick out of your “Vomatron” image. It’s a beautiful blur but what a name for that attraction.
drec replied
Thank you, storms are a favourite of mine and only started to chase them last year(March) and still learning along the way – next season…....
Vomatron does just that, people get off so green after this ride.
Anuja Manchana...
Great image.
Darren Stones
Congratulations on your challenge win, drec. Love those blue reflections. The office lights in the buildings look great, too. Well done.
drec replied
Cheers. Time for a journal…..

beautiful reflection shot, a great example of how it should be done
drec replied
Thank you. I fish here a bit so I get plenty of practise with my exposures.
Dave & Trena P...
oh what a beautiful shot!!! simply amazing!!!
drec replied
Thank you, Sometimes Surfers Paradise can look good.
Mark Coward
Beautiful shot. Looks like the photographers are biting too.
drec replied
Thank you. Can be a good spot around here to catch a reflection or two. It appears my camera leaves the house more often if I’m going fishing – that’s later on today.
JennyDean
this is just unreal drec, I keep going back to it as the cover image for the night shots challenge! gotta be a fav for sure :)
drec replied
Thank you. It’s not a bad spot this park behind the council chambers and from here I like Surfers(not to sure of actually being in Surfers at Night -)
EarthGipsy
Awesome!

drec replied
Thank you. Look it’s those Frangapanni Flowers that are commonly placed by the sea or in Pandanus Palms that seem to sell well as post cards in the tourist shops…..
ChristineBetts
come on….you know you want to shoot some;) give in… :):)
drec replied
There’s a two Story one of these at my Grand Mothers house. When it flowers I’ll collect a garbage bag full of these and will give it a go.
Chris Begg
That’s absolutely stunning! Fantastic work drec!
drec replied
Cheers Mate. Had a bit of practise round this part of the woods.
Adam Maund
What fish were biting?
drec replied
This is one of my Whiting spots. Had to share with about 10 boats…..
