Yamba - Seascapes

One of the things I love about living on the coast is the relationship between the sea and clouds.
When the clouds build up over the water they take on a completely different appearance to those I've been used to living in Canberra, which is some 150 kilometres from the sea.

Here are a couple of seascapes taken a few days ago. All photos enlarge when clicked.

Looking north past Turners Beach towards the southern (Yamba) breakwall on the Clarence River.
A rain-band is building up out to sea and within 12 hours we had good soaking rain for a day.

The cliff at the south end of Turners changes colour, depending upon the time of day and the sun's intensity. Out on the horizon the clouds are billowing.

A couple of people fishing from the rocks but there was only one surfer this morning.

This picture hangs on one of the walls in the TLC FM studios. A wonderful photo, more than a metre in length.


SUNDAY 1st. June
We did a trip up to Lismore (70km) this morning and on the way back went off the highway on the north side of the river to visit Iluka.
The village is 40+ km from Yamba by road yet less than 5 km by water!
Here are two shots of the "harbour" (Iluka Bay) taken from the extreme western-most point (see map link above) .
