Product Description

Bondi Icebergs Wall Art — Sydney, New South Wales

The Icebergs end of Bondi — the club and its pool sitting right out on the rocks with the swell breaking hard across the bay in front of it. Apartments stack up the hill behind in white and cream, and the whitewater runs almost the full width of the frame.

This is the most dramatic corner of the most famous beach in Australia. On a decent swell the sets pour clean over the pool wall while people keep swimming laps beneath them — which is precisely the image that has made Icebergs an international icon.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Australian aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. The challenge here is holding the architecture, the apartments and the moving whitewater in one exposure — three subjects pulling in different directions. The drone's 100MP Hasselblad camera carries all of them at full print size.

Energy and instant recognition

Where the top-down Icebergs frame is graphic and abstract, this one is all drama and context — you see the pool in its setting, with the ocean doing its worst around it. It suits living rooms, offices, gyms and coastal interiors, and it's a natural for anyone who has swum those lanes.

Between the club, the pool, the swell and the eastern suburbs behind, it's Sydney's most iconic swim in a single frame.

Available as a fine art paper print or stretched canvas, with black, oak and white framing options across a full range of sizes. Every artwork in the Matthew Philip collection comes from his own aerial photographs of places he has personally visited and flown.

About The Location

This is the most dramatic corner of the most famous beach in the country — the Icebergs club and pool sitting right out on the rocks with swell breaking hard across the bay in front of them.

On a solid swell the sets pour clean over the pool wall while people carry on swimming laps underneath. That exact image is why this place is famous well beyond Australia. Behind it the apartments stack up the hill in white and cream.

Architecture, apartments and moving whitewater pull an exposure three different ways, and the 100MP Hasselblad on the Mavic 4 Pro carries all of them. Of everything I shot in Sydney, this might be the most Sydney thing of the lot.

Frequently asked questions

All canvas prints on this site are made to order—I print each one specifically for you using museum-quality materials, which means a 3–4 week production and delivery window within Australia. This isn't a warehouse clearance; it's a custom-made product crafted to last decades. If you're ordering before a specific date, get in touch and I can often prioritize your print. Free shipping applies Australia-wide, and you'll receive tracking so you know exactly when your piece is arriving.

Paper and poster prints ship much faster—typically 1-2 business days to anywhere in the world, with free international shipping included. If you need your aerial photography print urgently, this is the best option. The paper is archival-grade (same fade-resistant, professional-quality stock I use in gallery prints), so despite the quicker turnaround, you're not compromising on longevity.

Canvas prints ship ready to hang with your choice of frame style at checkout: black, white, or natural oak. Each frame is specifically designed to complement the composition of the aerial photography and arrives attached and ready to display. If you prefer an unframed print, that's available too—giving you the flexibility to source custom framing locally or match existing décor. Paper prints come unframed but can be ordered with frame recommendations included in your package.

Canvas prints are stretched across 390gsm acid-free poly-cotton matte canvas—the same archival-quality material used by professional galleries and museums for fine art. The inks are fade-resistant and non-toxic, rated for 100+ years without noticeable color shift when kept out of direct sunlight. Paper prints come in three finishes: matte (museum-grade), semi-gloss (vibrant), or fine art paper, all archival-rated. As a Perth-based aerial photographer who has shot every image on this site, I've invested in materials that will outlast the trends—your print is an investment in something that lasts.

Canvas and paper prints are low-maintenance. Keep them away from prolonged direct sunlight (which fades any print over decades) and humidity extremes. If dust settles on canvas, a soft, dry, lint-free cloth does the job—no cleaners needed. Paper prints benefit from framing behind glass or acrylic, which provides UV protection and makes them virtually maintenance-free. Both formats are designed to age gracefully; many customers report their prints looking exactly as vibrant 10+ years later.

I stand behind every print. If your canvas or paper print arrives damaged, the colors aren't right, or anything doesn't meet your expectations, contact me immediately with photos. I'll remake it or refund you—no questions, no process. This isn't just a returns policy; it's a commitment to your satisfaction. Email matt@matthewphilip.com and we'll resolve it within 48 hours.
