The breeze built slowly all day as the clouds loomed progressively from offshore on Day 2 of the Audi Sydney Harbour Regatta.

With the sun peering periodically through dark clouds the light was spectacular by early afternoon and made for some great images, many of which accidentally included the numerous Muttonbirds that wheel low over the waves at this time of year.

Crosbie Lorimer followed the fleet inshore and offshore to capture these images.
