With harsh light and warm temperatures during the day, we spent some time exploring the creeks and coastline north of Broome. When the temperature peaked, we tried to find somewhere around Barred Creek to hang out and keep cool.
As the tide came in, we got the drones in the air to see if we could capture some images of the contrasting colours around the creek. In the afternoon, we headed up to James Price Point to find a camp spot and check out the beach for some landscape photography.

When I walked down to the beach at James Price Point, I was fascinated by the textures in the sand and explored the pools of water and veins created by the outgoing tide. I decided to make these elements on the beach my foreground subject as I composed a shot looking out over the ocean.
I adjusted the polarizer to remove just a small amount of glare from the rocks but retain the sky's reflection on the water in front of the camera. I used a 0.9 Graduated ND Filter to darken down the sky. At ISO 64, an aperture of f/14 and a 1/2 second shutter speed, I took the shot and moved up the beach to look for the next composition.
The Kimberley is a genuinely unique photographic location. I hope you enjoy the images and footage I captured from this region of Australia.
