Captain Cook Bridge by Rod Kashubin

One of the 3 bridges offering a crossing over the Georges River to the South of Sydney. Commenced in 1962 and built in 1965 as a part of F6 Freeway project linking Sans Souci and Taren Point shores. The light traces above the bridge on the right are airplanes on their approach to the Sydney Airport. This is a stitched panorama from a couple of 1-minute exposures. Post-processing: curves, reducing yellow color cast, noise removal and minor dodging.

Lifeblood by Geoff Coleman - Landscapes

Top tier of National Falls in Royal National Park, just south of Sydney. It’s been almost dry for months but with the recent rain we’ve been having it’s started to flow again to sustain the forest. And the angophoras shed their bark not long ago with their trunks revealing a vivid red/orange colour which goes progressively more and more grey over the year until they shed again. One moment you have a fairly drab looking forest and then almost overnight these vivid orange and red colours appear. And the angophora’s are so gnarly in their shape the forest of trees looks like arteries. Some dickhead was recently arrested trying to burn this down. Why they arrested him is beyond me – the drop off to the right of this shot is 30m – more than enough I would have thought. Canon 1Ds MkIII / TV: 30 secs / Av: f/22 / ISO: 100 / FL: 32mm

The Raging Stillness #2 by Geoff Coleman - Landscapes

This is a photoblend of 91 X 30 second exposures using the brilliant Startrails photoblend action that you can download from here / This is the 45 minute storm in one shot – in other words it’s the opposite end of the spectrum from the timelapse version I recently posted here / Trippy huh! / The large white streak in the sky is the moontrail, the little ones are startrails. The long lines sweeping across the sky are planes taking off and landing and the ones on the water are fishing trawlers. / A couple of curious things in this image. The first is the clear section of cloud above the main lightning strikes versus the blurred cloud around them. I think this is the result of these clouds being flashlit by each of the 20 odd lightning strikes whereas the other clouds were lit evenly by the moon in each image and hence blurred in the blend (hope that makes sense). / The other weird thing is that strange green line just above the middle planetrail near the centre of the image. It isn’t parallel to the startrails so isn’t one of them and satellites move so fast that one of those would have shown up as a long streak like the planetrails – any ideas? Taken off the cliffs at Bundeena, Royal National Park, Sydney Australia. / Canon EOS 1Ds MkIII / EF 16-35mm f/2.8 LII USM / Tv: 30sec / Av: f/3.5 / ISO: 200 / FL: 17mm Stats as of 16/11: 1 Sales – poster to Mystery Buyer on RB / 88 Comments / 51 peopleFavorited by / 8686 Views
