Manly Beach - Sydney Australia

It was the 1st of January 2010. When we were able to visit Manly Beach in Sydney. This is the first beach we visited as a family. Its quite small and full of waves. Yep, unlike back in the Philippines where in most beaches don't have much waves, in Sydney beaches have huge waves that's why surfing is quite popular here.

Before going to the beach we had our first breakfast of the year, I got my self the "BIG ONE".


Here are some of my take on the beach.

Sydney's - Luna Park

One common attraction in Sydney is Luna Park. Luna Park is a carnival with many rides and it is worth visiting when you are in Sydney.


The entrance is free, so all you have to worry about is the rides passes. Here is the list of the prices when I last visited.


and here are some more pics I took.

Harbour Bridge in B&W

My family decided to go around the city once again this time to enjoy the views. I was able to capture Harbour Bridge in different angles and turned them into Black and White. Here is my take hope you like it.

Sydney @ Night

Last Friday Night I was invited to shoot the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. The experience was really great, the weather as usual was cold brrrr. Shooting at night requires you to shoot with long shutter speed to have great effects on the light. Good thing my new found friends lent me their tripod. Here are some of the pictures I got, I'm not sure if the pixels are really the effect of long exposure but this is the first time I'm posting pics I did not edit using lightroom. Hope you still like it.

Sydney Olympic Park

As you might already know Australia has a lot of parks for the family. This is one great thing about this country, you'll see parks left and right where you could share the whole morning and afternoon with family and friends. Last Sunday, Nat, Cherrie, Maku and I got to visit Wentworth Common. A park near the Sydney Olympic Park, yup this was where the Olympics was held way back .... man don't expect me to know hehehe.

Anyway, we weren't able to tour the Olympic park itself. But, here is a view of the Wentworth Community center.

Kids, get to play on the sand.


Some swing action.

And a wide open space of green.

Here are some photos I took.




As usual I found the kid in me in this park, I really enjoyed playing here and got real tired so I decided to rest ahh. Thanks to Nat for taking this photo.

Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge

What's new? It has been a while again since I last updated my blog. After almost 3 months here I finally landed my first job and boy was the job market really tough. With a lot of prayers from my family, friends and myself I finally was able to find a job that fits my experience.

So much for my job hunting experience :). I posted today to show you some of my shots of the Opera house and Harbour bridge. If you plan of visiting Sydney these two are one of the must sees. It's easy to go to accessible by Bus, Train, Feiry and Taxis you just drop by Circular Quay and you'll be able to walk around the Opera House and see Harbour bridge from a nice angle.

You might want to visit the inside of the Opera House as I've heard it has a great view from inside as well. Never got the time to see it though. Here is my take.




A little view from the top :)

From the ground.

And on the sea.

As we were on the way home, I saw this bridal car and as usual took a picture of it so I could share it to you guys. Here is the short version.

And the long version.

Hillsong Church

Last weekend, I got to go to a dedication party for Baby Matthew. We went to Hillsong Church in Windsor hope I got it right :).

The place and the people are so friendly and the way they celebrate is totally fun. The place is so huge like a theater and the people are so nice they are so accommodating.

I wish someday I could bring Cookie and Harvey there. I just got to shot only a few pics here they are.
