]]> When Lismore-based photographer Tony Betts took a trip to Clarrie Hall dam on Doon Doon Creek – a tributary of the South Arm of the Tweed River, 15 kilometres south-west of Murwillumbah, he found a perfect place to do some contemplatitive photography.  “It was the most beautiful spring day,” he says.  “It’s a wonderful place for a day out.”  For those that haven’t been there Clarrie Hall Dam is set among some beautiful forest, and although the Dam is to provide storage for Tweed’s water supply, it’s  also a great area for picnics and barbecues, bush walking, sports fishing and bird watching.
Tony Betts used a Nikon D800 with a 24mm lens at f5.6 1/250th ISO 100

]]> Our Shot of the Week photographer Tony Betts has been living in the Northern Rivers since 1999.  “I arrived here as a refugee from Sydney,” he says, “although I did have a stint in Dublin for four years where I was President of the Dublin Camera Club.”  He took this photo of dawn on the Pimpana River on the Gold Coast from the bow of a houseboat.   “The ripples on the water in the early morning from a couple of passing fishermen, along with the beautiful cloud formation gives this shot its visual interest,” he says.

Tony Betts used a Nikon D800, Nikon 24-70 f2.8 Zoom at 70mm Exposure 1/60 f5.6 ISO400.
