Just thought I'd repost this one from earlier in the week as I think it was a great moment that I would like to share with everyone, Max

Thanks BP, no, I don't live there but am frequently up that way, I do much prefer northern NSW coast but Coolanagatta area is very nice.

Shooting with? Michael, I was using my old freebie Tamron 70-300mm, getting a bit sand encrusted these days but still works fine.

Thanks Glen,

If ever I was to use one of them thar new fangled 400mmVR Nikon thingies I might do something drastic like sell the wife to buy one... :D

Will have to make do with the cheapie at present, still does a pretty fair job.

The second and last images in the first group work for me. They are excellent captures.

Well another MaxAttack, mate you making me cry with these shots.LOL
These are great and such a nice place to take them as well, we have nothing like that here and our water is a horrible colour at times. It is strange that we can go over the border into Victoria and things are different again sand sometimes different water nicer colour.
But these shots are bloody great and the dolphin jumping is unreal, good onya mate i look forward to seeing more of these shots from you as i know they are bloody great.

Thanks John, yeah, we are spoiled up here on the north coast, warm even in mid winter (what Winter? We haven't had any this year). The Mt does have it's nice spots though, it's just the word "warmth" doesn't come into it!! 8)

What colour is the blue lake these days?
