Beautifully Captured…

Thursday 11 July 2013

I am very lucky to work with a colleague who has just returned from living in Sydney for 6 months. I have been bombarding her with millions of questions about jobs, houses, lifestyle etc. I want to know it ALL. She has been wonderfully patient and informative and a few days ago, she emailed me a newsletter of a surfer-come-photographer based in Bondi that she thought I would like. This might be old hat to some of you (as he has a following to rival that of Justin Bieber) but Aquabumps (website and newsletter) was started by Eugene Tan, long before blogs were even a big deal. I was hooked from the very first picture. Most of the shots are taken at day break but it’s Eugene’s interesting and unique angles that I think make him stand out from the rest. I immediately subscribed to the newsletter and set about making friends and colleagues jealous by sending them pictures of our new home. If you are a fan of beach photography (or photography in general really), do yourself a favour and subscribe! You can also buy prints of your favourites from the website.
