Cassurina Trunks

The tall cassurina trees on Lady Elliot Island are beautiful with graceful long ‘leaves’ that dance in the wind. This shot is not about that, but the fluid trunks that defined much of the island for me.

Tiny Waves

I spent hours photographing these small wavelets as they hit the beach and rocks all around the island. Got a wet bum and sunburnt ankles but had the utmost fun.

I actually walked away from the beach infront of my accommodation a short distance to the rocky point for a change in my sunrise shots, and wasn’t disappointed.

I turned my back on the sunset to capture the wonderful glow coming from the massed clouds out to sea, well everywhere is out to sea on Lady Elliot Island.

Lady Elliot Island is a coral cay made up from the broken reef surrounding it and the addition of guano from the masses of seabirds that breed there. The waters edge is a mix of broken coral (the main component) and some sand.

Sunrise each morning was just a step outside the door onto the sand and to the waters edge. Each was different, each was special, this one was delicate apricot.

White Capped Noddy Tern

White Capped Noddy Tern

We were there in the breeding season for the terns. Hundreds if not thousands of them with chicks perched on every conceivable branch of nearly every tree or else just nesting on the grass covered sand. And the noise!
