Dundowran Beach 366 – A Visual Essay

Sue Brooks January 6th, 2009

I was honoured to receive a CD from Geoff Piper and Robyn Minchinbury recently containing their photographs of Dundowran Beach. Robyn and Geoff, both Dundowran residents, describe themselves as amateur photographers but on viewing their work I believe they would compete easily with professional photographers. Robyn and Geoff decided to take photographs at Dundowran Beach each and every day for an entire year. They have selected the best shots for each day and the compilation is a masterpiece. The photographs depict our beautiful local beach in all shades, colours and weather. Some photographs focus on the native vegetation and wildlife adjacent to the beach while others capture the many interactions that the human species has with this coastal strip. There are 366 photographs (November 2007 – November 2008) accounting for the leap year, and these photographs collectively paint an amazing portrait of our wonderful local natural habitat.

Thank you Robyn and Geoff for undertaking the project as the results will give pleasure to many and be an excellent historical record of our local area for years to come. If you would like a CD of the photographs in high res and suitable for many uses, they are available from Geoff and Robyn for $10. You can view the photographs via picasa at http://picasaweb.google.com/piperwg/DUNDOWRANBEACH#

Robyn Minchinton and Geoff Piper can be contacted to order copies of the CD via their email addresses as follows.

    Dear Sue,
    I wonder if you would mind amending my name to ‘Geoff’ instead of Keith. Many thanks,
    Geoff Piper
