Island Arch by Dean Prowd Panoramic Photography
Island Arch is located along the Great Ocean Road, Victoria Australia. While staying in the area I took the opportunity to take a photograph of this popular tourist attraction. I visited this location on the previous evening to check out a suitable composition and the best direction for lighting. To capture the image I arrived early in the morning and set up before the sunrise and waited for the light.

...and the cow jumped over the moon (or he would have if he hadn't been stuck in a tree!) by Mieke Boynton
The cow in the tree sculpture at Docklands, Melbourne. It used to be a really prominent feature, but now it’s tucked in within the Docklands and you really have to look for it :( I was lucky to pick a morning when the moon was bright and big. Featured in Australian Landmarks and Icons ~ thank you! Nikon D60 (18-55mm lens)

Daydream by parmi
Look here for an incredible piece of writing by blueeyesjus that puts into words everything this image is conveying. Another one of the shots from the day at Port Melbourne beach. This depicts the scene I would picture in my head whenever I was in a place I didn’t want to be. More often than not, school. More specifically, maths class. I wasn’t built for a classroom, being force fed instructions and problematic things that needed solving. It was always about the freedom of creation to me. So I would sit in class and think about anywhere other than where I was. It’s such a vivid memory, despite being 15 years ago. Featured in JPG Cast Offs / Featured in Australian Landmarks & Icons Crop of original shot, level tweaking to adjust tone. No other processing on this one. See here for instructions on how to create this image. Canon 50D / 18 – 55, 58mm / Macro filter / f8, 1/200, ISO 100 / Ansco Rediflex / Home Made Dark Box MCN: CFBJY-HSVRC-1DSTK

Beauty of the North Shore by Adam Gormley
This is Noosa North Shore, looking North towards the coloured sand cliffs, and Double Island Point. The cliffs are on fire, and much of the precious sand dune cover is going to be lost. Errosion is inevitable, possibly from an irresponsible camper lighting fires in a total fire ban, or the back-burning error made by the councils. Smoke can be seen to the left of this shot, limiting visibility along the beach. Still, this is one of the most beautiful places I have been, and the wildlife here, with the many eagles is just magical to witness. Even the pipi birds, gannets, terns, and seagulls (a seagull in flight in this shot) are awe inspiring! Canon 5D Mk II, 35mm, 16:9 crop. Available very large, and best viewed large!
