22 Mar Another Shot at Norah Head
Norah Head is only 20 minutes north of our house and a good place for us to go camping with our Jayco Club friends.
On the first night, in the pitch black, Greg (a friend and Jayco Club member) and I walk down to the headland to take photos of the lighthouse. The photo above was made at around 8pm that night.
Camping on Elm Street at Norah Head Holiday Park was certainly not a nightmare. We enjoyed six days and nights there.
Apart from eating and meeting with other members of the Jayco Club, we spent plenty of time walking along Soldiers Beach.
The Long Jetty Festival was held during our stay at Norah Head, so we decided to take a brief look. By the time we arrived thousands of people had already gathered.
In addition to the types of stalls pictured, three stages had been set up for the many musos on the bill, but these were not ready to “rock” at the time.
Back to strolling along the beach
I love watching birds in flight, but I don’t normally attempt to capture images of them. I decided to reset the camera; change from Aperture Priority to Shutter Priority; select a fast shutter speed; switch to continuous shooting mode instead of single; and “have a go”. Although, with a short 55mm lens fitted, it was not ideal. Tracking these birds in flight was difficult and will require more practice and a longer lens. Despite the difficulties, I thought these few cropped shots might be worth showing you.
Time for a rest. Take care and I’ll see you next time.
