I Spend Hours In The Ocean Photographing Its Glorious Beauty

My name is Matt Burgess I am an ocean photographer from Australia. I enjoy capturing the ocean in its many moods, one thing that draws me to the water most mornings before the sun rises is the relationship between water and light. I have been capturing ocean images for around 6 years now and to me there is no better way to start the day.

I am currently living in Victoria, Australia.

This would have been taken seriously by me if it wasn't called "ocean fries".

Australian Ocean Photographer // My name is Matt Burgess I am an ocean photographer from Australia. I enjoy capturing the ocean in her many moods, one thing that draws me to the water most mornings before the sun rises is the relationship between water and light. I have been capturing ocean images for around 6 years now and to me there is no better way to start the day.   I love to capture beneath the breaking wave as it is a view that most non ocean going people don't get to experience, a lot of people are blown away by what actually happens beneath the surface.

I love water and oceans. You're pics are amazingly beautiful. I am wondering how much time and effort you've put to get these pictures. One thing is for sure you're a person with tremendous patience and eye for beauty.

How is it possible to get so close to these beautiful waves. Some of them look like "the calm before the storm". I am totally fascinated by your technique!

This looks great. The pictures appear to be calming/soothing , even if there is an enormous angry wave that splashes against a rock. As a huge printed picture on an otherwise empty wall they would be perfect. Do you sell them?
