That's Queensland talk for an imminent tropical low or cyclone, and we have one bearing down on the coast as I write. I had planned to take the big cam to Moffat Beach on the way home tonight anyway, but let's face it, from a photographic point of view, I was a bit interested in trying to capture roiling seas and angry clouds. I was expecting some surfers because, dear reader, when I was a surfer 'back in the day', this was the right combination of excellent weather for a surf.
Turns out, the water wasn't quite as wild as I expected, a bit like last week actually (Day 42), but there were some interesting goings on...

Cutting it |
Kite-boarding it |
Moffat Headland (again, compared with last week...for research purposes) |
Tubing it (almost) |
Sliding it |
Low light, longish exposure, foaming it |
Last colours |
Last wave |
Seriously, whatever the weather, nothing beats the beach. Oh, and the fish and chips. Did I mention the fish and chips? And two potato scallops...
