Mahon Pool, Maroubra

Mahon Pool, Maroubra


Started my 2015 with this rock pool shooting. It was in my to-do list for long as I terribly failed to shoot Bronte beach which was my first attempt to pool shot. Mahon pool is a beautiful rock pool at Maroubra beach and indeed a popular spot for photographers as well. I found at least 5/6 photographers already set up their equipments on best spots. However I found a nice and suitable spot on the other side of the pool though it was bit risky place to set up. I almost hit by big waves several times. I recommend this spot with some cautions to get a different angle. I definitely will visit this place soon to try other angles.
