What's cooler than sculptures (most reverse garbage) on the beach with many resembling people, animals, architecture , conceptual or abstract.

Every year I look forward to the Thirroul Seaside Arts Festival and its Sculptures On The Beach exhibition. This year I was held up and arrived at sunset (best time for photos other than sunrise!) and found most of the exhibits were packed up. Doh! Oh well... with the help of a lovely lady and my waving wildly I was able to ask three exhibitors to re-install their works so I could take some photos and video interviews. I had so much fun and it was so lovely being there at the golden hour - that magical time before the sun sets which lends its golden light on faces with a backdrop of a pastel sky. There is nothing like it! Especially when it fades so quickly into night. I love it!

So, without any further ado - here are a few photos I took - straight out of camera

The festival is on the first Friday, Saturday and Sunday of April and is a great way to spend your day. Free, fun and kid friendly with the interactive exhibits such as delight, educate and inspire!

Scroll down to view the video I quickly edited from my afternoon sunset interviews and background. Next time I will make sure to lug along a tripod. Apologies for my shaky camera work but I had just run down the beach waving at the artists to please let me take some photos and videos before they took off after a long weekend. Thanks so much to all who were involved!
