Growing up in the wild weathered north-west coast of Tassie I developed a love of beach life and big swells. The ocean is always fun for me, whether I'm surfing, ocean kayaking, swimming or diving. A couple years back following a motorbike crash I realised I need a safer hobby.

My name is Ricki Leigh Eaves and I am a Tasmanian landscape photographer.
Growing up in the wild weathered northwest coast of Tassie, I developed a love of beach life and big swells. The ocean is always fun for me whether I’m surfing, ocean kayaking, swimming or diving. A couple years back, following a motorbike crash, I realized I need a safer hobby. I began landscape photography with my more recognizable work being done under the stars and the lights of the Aurora Australis. Now, I have merged these two great passions. I am loving exploring and shooting the great oceans and coastlines of Tassie.
