Matilda Bay encore et fini (until the next time)..



Matilda Bay is a natural bay in the Swan River. With UWA opposite, numerous sailing endeavors along it's shore plus cafes and restaurants, it can get pretty busy in Matilda Bay. There are so many advantages to an early morning breakfast.. less crowds being the main one :)


The tiny welcome swallow below sat still for a second or two.. just long enough for me to take a not so clear quick click..


I'm a sucker for a sequence of shots :) Watching the three swans below swim behind the small boat I waited for them to come out one by one until all three sailed off into the distance. I know right.. but it made me 😊


Matilda Bay is definitely on the 'bring visitors to' list of destinations in Perth, you would love it. Happy Sunday, take care and stay safe..

  1. A pretty spot to spend time in, and a good spot for dogs to have a ramble about.

  10. Great city views. Ah, just checked where it is. I remember now. The river is so big here, it looks like an ocean.

  14. Your top shot is again wonderfully composed. I love the crispness of the figures in the foreground and the moody blue/grey as the image recedes to the background.
