it was from the blurb from the video over on vimeo…
Another massive winter swell hit Sydney’s coast over the last week generating monster sized waves putting on an impressive display of power and beauty along the coastline.
People spend hours and hours perched atop the cliffs at Bronte (pronounced Bron-tee) marvelling at the sheer power of the waves crashing to shore whilst observing surfers taking on the big swells. What do people think about as they look out onto the huge swells rolling in and crashing up against the shore? Always wondered…. and how therapeutic it is for so many people.
As it was a southerly swell generated by a huge low pressure system off Tasmania only a couple of Sydney’s city beaches are rideable for the surfers – Bronte, my favourite beach and local, being one of them.

Thanks so much Dave. I looked at the indigozoom website but somehow missed the music credit. Her voice is very cool. I just saw at her website that she’s the one who sang that haunting song during the end credits of the Two Towers. That song stayed with me for days after walking out of the theater at 3:00 am. That movie had such a grim, dark end and that song, oh, man, it just creeped me out. She’s able to handle various styles, though – the song on the surfing video is so cheery!
Thanks again for the blog: I, too, have spoken on Luke 15 a few times and look forward to what you have to say. God the Father is Prodigal!! “How Deep The Father’s Love For Us!”
wow this was so good…and that woman’s voice…combined with the slo-motion waves….just mesmerising. Do you know who she is?
