Tropical Cyclone Alfred made landfall on the Sunshine Coast in early 2025 – the first cyclone to directly impact southeast Queensland in decades. In the days before the eye arrived, the surf at Noosa built into something extraordinary: long-period groundswell from the deep ocean, stacked to the horizon, breaking over the reef in perfect, unridden lines. This image was made in that pre-landfall window.

TC Alfred – Noosa is a 3:1 panoramic black and white fine art print of Noosa Beach photographed in the hours before Tropical Cyclone Alfred made landfall on the Sunshine Coast in 2025. The monochrome rendering strips away colour and lets the texture of the swell, the weight of the cloud, and the raw energy of the approaching storm carry the image. The 3:1 format gives the scene room to breathe – the horizon stretching across the frame, the swell lines receding toward it.
