Pride by Dennis Gay
THE SUBJECT: / A juvenile Ardea alba (Great Egret) steps slowly and purposefully through the shallows hunting for a meal. THE LOCATION: / Photographed at Lake Cathie, NSW, Australia on a great winter day. THE MAKING OF ‘Pride’: / On a return visit to this out-of-the-way part of the lake I stalked this youngster as it looked for lunch while I was partially screened by trees along the lake edge. / Due to the conditions I was able to make an exposure aimed at a B&W result but had no idea it would turn out as good as it has. / I have printed this on Ilford Galerie Smooth High Gloss Media and so far it has not developed any colour cast. Fingers crossed! / Fuji S9600: RAW, Manual settings of f/4.9 @ 1/500sec, Auto focus, ISO80, Hand held. / Lightroom 2.2 & Photoshop CS3. Visit the Aussie Birds collection in my BubbleSite Gallery for more members of the Heron family. UPDATE: 24-8-09 / My young Egret has been featured in the All That Is Nature Group. UPDATE: 25-8-09 / This juvenile Egret has been featured in the Point and Shooters Group. UPDATE: 30-8-09 / My solo Egret has been featured in the That One Great Shot Group. UPDATE: 3-9-09 / My now famous wading Egret has been featured in the Achromatic Nature Group. UPDATE: 6-9-09 / Yet again one of my favourite shots has been FEATURED, this time in the New South Wales Photography Group AND in the Waterfowl Group. UPDATE: 14-10-09 / My solo Egret has been FEATURED in the 60 and Beyond Group. UPDATE: 7-11-09 / My lakeside B&W has been FEATURED in the Fuji Fine Group. UPDATE: 9-11-09 / My beautiful white Egret has been FEATURED in The Black and White Enthusast Group. UPDATE: 10-11-09 / My Lake Cathie scene has been FEATURED in the Waterfowl Group. Enjoy!

Wanderring... by micmac
Untouched and a total accident,a macro shot of snow that fell down the roof last winter.I hope I’m not the only one who sees a part of a face in the clouds… :))...better view larger So close,so far… / It felt like eternity… / I walked …and walked / lost in a paradise of ice Hopelessly crying,hoping / to be delivered from that immensity. / I reached to the top of that icy pic / and saw a small refuge. For an euphoric instant / I saw His Face in the clouds / The Keeper of my souvenirs / I knew ,then / The reason of my wanderring… Gigi / / My first poem in english and first experience for me.This situation happened to me two days ago,I’ve got lost in the woods for 4 hours,walking and walking,desperate to find a saving light.It was so dark,even Tchoko was worried,chasing imaginary animals….then I saw thousands of stars all arround me,it was fireflies….it was like being part of the universe…nothing else but fireflies…then I realised I was out of the woods.I met 6 persons and asked for help,one of them let me do a phone call but Michel was working late and wasn’t there.I have to say that I hated humanbeings that night and I cried of rage instead of fear.I finaly saw a police car on the road and went back to where I was parked.It was midnight.Tchoko and I slept all day after,tired but happy to be home. / ...A true story ..thanks for reading…x / / PS. I wanted to do the sunset on the top of a mountain,the same place I took «Together at last»but I forgot the time shooting mushrooms…. :)))..it’s all me. / /

The Afternoon At Long Reef by Peter Hill
I remember the day well. I got a parking ticket. It was a Friday afternoon at Long Reef on Sydney’s northern beaches. We had had a cool beer and a long lunch at the golf club, sitting outside checking the sky and the tide, before venturing out onto the headland. I had all my gear with me but chose to shoot the low tide with the infra red camera, a converted Canon EOS 10D. Framing the shot sorta wasn’t hard! Oh, yes, I almost forgot. It was my birthday too.
