This first image, for me, is quintessential australian summer on the northern beaches - I also really like it because of the apparent father-son bonding. :up:

I do like the concept of what you have captured in #1 Gerry. :up:

Love the whole series Gerry!
After Freshwater, Curly is my favourite beach! Well done!
I wish I could do a morning Northern Beaches shoot with you sometime in the near future when I get some time!!

in hindsight, a lower POV with some horizon may have been better suited to this image, not much for the eye to follow.

First image is beautiful technical quality...(is it the 105mm?) and perfect composition. You got the balance perfect and it makes the image very easy to look at.

Almost missed this series!

#1 not ringing my bell that much. I think your idea of the lower POV may be a good one.

#3 You could crop to square from the top. Just have those people and the water. Great light on this!

Dat is bootiful composition dude. Nice double S like flow. You could crop those waves right at the top. They don't add much. :cheers:
