There were green barrels, Blue Bombies and all kind of crazy waves to be had today... Luke Kearney and Scotty O'dell made the trip down from sydney and we had one of the best surfs together in a long time....
These photos were while we were checking spots, and gotta tell you, that were we ended up surfing was better!

The swell is expecting to peak at around 9 feet as I'm posting this, so where are you going to surf tomorrow? Hope you score!

Surfing's the source!!!

Creepy Sea Lion!

Here's a photo that i took last year at Taronga Zoo. I reckon it's pretty cool the way old mate sea lion looks as if he is going to lay a big kiss on my fiance... Lucky he didn't because then i would of had to of jumped in and sorted him out big time....

Don't mess with my chick!

Jackson Pollock Who?

Here's proof that art is all around us. This is just random splaterings of paint left on the sidewalk by a sign writer for a Italian deli in Cabramatta West. He gets paid to paint "Jap Pumpkins 99 cents a Kilo!!!" and in doing so, over time, he's creating another master piece akin to Jackson Pollock.

Jackson Who?
The First Pollock i saw was "Summertime" in London's Tate Modern ten years ago.
But you don't need to go that far,next time your in Canberra, go check out Pollock's "Blue Poles" at The National Gallery. In 1973 the Whitlam government paid 1.3 million dollers for the work... Its now thought to be worth upwards of 180 million...
Not a bad investment...

I wonder what the sign writers work is worth? I'll go back in a year or so and see how the artwork in coming along... maybe even try and get a photo of the artist at work...

Hope you like it...
