It turns out that a picture can be worth far more than a thousand words as Girt by Sea seeks to share the ever-transforming appearance of Australia’s coastline. It endeavours to quench the thirst of our nations coastal dwellers for wild, untamed adventure and satisfy our hunger to explore wild spaces.

Whilst aerial photography has been around for a while, originating in a hot-air balloon 80m above Paris, the ever-changing Australian coastline has not quite been captured in such detail. “It’s the result of our daily decision to focus on what we actually find, not on what we expect to find – that’s the spirit of exploration,” says Denis Glennon.
