Cape Solander Picnic & Photowalk…

by on Apr.04, 2015, under Life, Photography

Met up with a group of friends for a fantastic afternoon on Cape Solander at Kurnell last weekend. Ana Andres had organised a picnic and photowalk for us on a lazy sunday afternoon.

I brought my two youngest daughters for the afternoon to enjoy the good food, good company and the very slow meandering 🙂 down the coast towards the lighthouse.

Came across a colony of these very large red bull-ants – not wanting to be bitten but my girls were still fascinated by them and took many of their own photographs of these little beasties. Many thanks to Jason Ruth for the loaner camera for my girls to use.

By the time we were walking back to the cars the skies had started to get this crazy moody light to then. A strange almost dirty burnt colour was starting to show in the clouds and interesting rays of light were streaming out through the gaps in the clouds. This shot is simply from the end of Cape Solander Drive where we’d started and ended the walk.
