Product Description

The grassy headland at Hastings Point sits above a tumble of dark rock, and from it the beach curves away north into clear turquoise. Cars are parked along the top of the point, which is exactly how this place works on a good day.

I left the car park in deliberately. It would have been easy to frame it out and produce another empty coastline, but the point is a lookout that people actually drive up to and use, and the handful of cars gives the headland a sense of scale that a clean frame loses.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Australian aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. There is a lot competing in this frame: green headland, dark rock, white water and bright sand all in one image. The drone's 100MP Hasselblad camera has the dynamic range to keep the shadowed rock open while the sand stays clean rather than blown out.

The most recognisable view of the point

Anyone who knows this stretch of the Tweed Coast will recognise it immediately, which makes it the natural choice for someone with a connection to the place. The greens and turquoise are strong, so it works best as a feature piece rather than a quiet background one.

Available as a rolled fine art paper print or a stretched canvas, with black, oak and white framing options across four sizes from 28x36cm up to 150x100cm. Every artwork in the Matthew Philip collection comes from his own aerial photographs of beaches he has personally visited and flown.

About The Location

I left the car park in on purpose. It would have been easy to frame it out and produce another empty coastline, but the point is a lookout that people actually drive up to and use.

The handful of cars gives the headland a sense of scale that a clean frame loses completely. You can see how high it stands over the rocks because there is something familiar up there to measure it against.

There is a lot competing in this one: green headland, dark rock, white water and bright sand all at once. The 100MP Hasselblad on the Mavic 4 Pro has the range to keep the shadowed rock open while the sand stays clean.

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.
