Hayaku: A Time Lapse Journey Through Japan – Brad Kremer
by LSP on Jul.29, 2010, under 5D films, Documentaries, Outdoors!, Travel, Urban
Brad Kremer is better known for shooting snowboard movies but he obviously got the timelapse bug a few years back too.
I first saw his timelapsing here.
This is the best one I have seen yet…really inspiring.

Royal National Park – Garie Beach
by LSP on Jul.25, 2010, under Beaches, Outdoors!, Walks
About 50kms south of Sydney is a massive park called the Royal National Park.
It was established in 1879 and is the worlds second oldest national park after Yellowstone. The park is 15000 hectares and includes a long ragged coastline, loads of beaches, and rolling hills, gullys and rocky outcrops covered in bush.
It is the furthest we have been from Sydney so far and made me even more keen to see other parts of this huge country.

Flo and I finally had the same day off and a means of transport with 2 seats, so we went for our first ever proper trip out of Sydney, only as far as West Head, but its a start…hopefully many more missions to come!

Flo hasnt been out of Manly in a long while so we went for a sunday drive and I took her to a few of my favourite places around the North Shore…
A Shadow Falls by Nick Brandt
by LSP on Jul.07, 2010, under ART!, Outdoors!, Photography
My mate told me about the Nick Brandt Exhibition so we went to have a look. I have seen some of the images before but didnt know who the photographer was.
The prints in the gallery were huge, I mean seriously HUGE…and there were some truly epic images.
I think the Elephant drinking is his most famous image…only 8 of these massive prints were put up for sale…and they sold out despite the $100k price!
A couple of my favourite images, many more images here.

Cabbage tree bay walk and snorkle
by LSP on Jun.13, 2010, under Beaches, Oceans, Outdoors!, Surf, Sydney
We have got in to a good habit, usually at the end of the day, of walking round the bay from Manly to Shelley beach and snorkling back again. Every time is different – sometimes the u/w visibility is great, other times the swell is pounding through, sometimes the walking route is packed with people, other times it is just us…but its always a really good experience, helps me relax and makes me feel more connected to nature and where we live…
