McCarrs Creek is a suburb that is located adjacent to McCarrs Creek, approximately 4 kilometres west of Newport, at the headwaters of the Pittwater in northern Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Recently, Joe and I went to there on numerous locations to try various types of new experimental shots, with mirrors, lights steel wool and drones. Here are some of the outtakes.

1

Photoshopped two versions of Joe standing next to eachother and flipped one and made it slightly smaller. Came out pretty cool!

3

Some nice light shining down the creek. I swam in it with my camera and water housing, despite the pretty cold and murky water.

4

Joe in the mangroves holding the mirror before we started taking the shots.

5

Joe holding his sisters mirror. This is the image that I used for the composite in the first picture.

6

Floating in the milky water trying to capture some cool mirror reflections.

7

A little creepy, not going to lie…

8

The water at Upper Gledhill falls was absolutely freezing. I think Joe got an icecream headache going underwater for this shot.

In between the boats.

14

Charlie waving high up which made for a pretty sick shot.

16

In through the trees where the bats were. They went pretty crazy after this one.

Doing a spiral on the drone with the Litchi app.

18

One of my favourite photos I’ve taken, flying the drone down the creek.

Flying the drone straight up.
