It's easy to understand why this area is called the Sapphire Coast: it is a real jewel in our nation's crown. It would take months to discover the many nooks and crannies of this coastal paradise, but I have tremendously enjoyed getting to know the area better. Photography forces you to really explore a place if you are serious about capturing it's essence. You observe a region in different light and seasons. This is Tura Beach, a favourite spot for locals from nearby Merimbula and for the many visitors. I had to give this idyllic image an emotive title, because for me it evokes the magic this area has to offer. It is an intoxicating place to stop and ponder life. As the waves come and go and clouds sail on by, it inspires us to dream and not be held back by the worries life can bring.
