After a cracker surf at Bears today, I joined my wife for a cooling swim at Eagle Bay.
The water clarity was to die for and it just so happened that I had my trusty 1Ds with me.
Here is a sample of what we had down there.

Clarity of that water is simply amazing!!! Good thing you always bring your camera!
Where is Eagle Bay again, I don’t think I know that spot.

Hey Bo,
All the best for the New Year mate!
Eagle Bay is down near the tip of Cape Naturalist.
If you visit http://www.truenorthashore.com you will see where I am staying and also see a map of how to get there.
Cheers,
Mark

nice and inviting Markie, just a thought, I think it would be good to see the water look a little more blue. I think if you went to selective colour, clicked on the neutrals and pulled a bit of yellow out it would make the sand look whiter. Now I know it may have looked that way but I think the whiter sand is always nicer for these types of shots.
Just my thoughts, it was a beautiful day wasn’t it. I should have the 14-24 nikon lens for the D3s tomorrow so will be very keen to do something like this with you.

Really like this shot too Mark, more grouse stuff. You have almost made the Eagle Bay water as clear as Bunker Bay water! Almost….

Hey Mark, how long are you hanging around down south for? Was thinking of heading down for a day on Wednesday. Had poor conditions down Esperance way, so thinkin might get luckier down your way. So if you’re around and gonna be out shooting….I’ll hit CF up too!!

Hi Jamie,
I will be going for a surf in the morning and then could be up for a quick photo shoot before going back to Perth later that day.
Give me a call on 0418 920 271 when you know what you are up to.

Mark
