Seascape

Thanks very much Jason. This is the first chance I’ve had to try this camera out so it’s a case of seeing what it can do. Peter

Thanks a lot Colin, both for the kind words and also for the fav.. I was standing on the beach and used about 100 mm of zoom. This beach shelves quite sharply so the waves break closer to the shore. Peter

Very many thanks and it remains to be seen whether anyone will buy it! It was really just an experimental shot to see what the camera was capable of. Peter

G’day Warren and many thanks mate. Too right I miss the R1. The insurance company are going to replace all three stolen cameras but I don’t know what with. They won’t be able to find an R1 in a hurry now, that’s for sure. Peter

Happy to meet you Jerame and many thanks for the visit and kind words. Peter

Aw – thanks heaps mate. This was almost the first seascape I had taken with the new Sony so it was largely experimental. I used the 55-200 kit lens for all today’s shots. The other supplied lens is an 18-70 which I’ve been testing out on a few wildflowers. Peter

G’day Brendan and very many thanks mate. Good to see you again. Peter

Thank you very much Wanda. Ocean shots are my thing, really – I tend to do more of them than anything else. Comes with always having lived within shouting distance of the coast. Peter

You’re really TOO kind – but I love it!! LOL Thanks a million. But for REALLY great photos have you visited my friend Rod (Rodsfotos) yet? When he starts uploading his Cornwall photos you will be drooling!! Hugs, Peter

Hi Rosy and many thanks for both the visit and the kind words. Peter

Well, you SHOULD have been there. We would have enjoyed your company and after all it’s less than a day’s flight from Heathrow!! LOL I can’t understand why you’re not on your way!! LOL Thanks a heap. Hugs, Peter

Our sleepy little Yanchep is growing at an alarming rate now and it won’t be the same!! The National Park hasn’t changed, though and that is where I take over 50% of my photos these days. Where abouts in Perth did you live?
Sadly the C750 was one of the cameras that were stolen in the break in a couple of weeks ago. However the Insurance Company have agreed to replace all my cameras so it will be interesting to see how they are going to do it.
We have fond memories of a week spent in Toowoomba in 1987, especially one idyllic Sunday afternoon spent at Picnic Point listening to the band playing all the old Glenn Miller tunes! The only thing I wasn’t keen on was lugging our caravan up the hill to get there!! Best wishes, Peter

Thanks very much John. The ocean is always so clear and clean up there. Peter

Many thanks Hans. This was yesterday afternoon and you know how nice and mild it was. Peter

Thanks very much Rod, both for the comment and the Fav. I know the feeling about the weather playing up when you are itching to try out a new camera – it did that to me for 4 consecutive days after mine was delivered. That is something that NEVER happens out here! LOL All the best, Peter

Thanks very much Tiffany. It was a beautiful spring afternoon with hardly another person in sight anywhere. Peter

You soppy date! Drooling all over your keyboard indeed! LOL But I’m glad you like it! Hugs and thanks, Peter

I am delighted that you like it Don – thanks very much for the appreciation. I’m almost ashamed to tell you it was a trial shot with a new camera! LOL All the best mate, Peter

LOL You’re a good bloke Don – and I don’t care what other people say!! Thanks a million for buying that one – while you’re about it I’ll have a hunt round for another couple of dozen ocean shots! LOL

Very many thanks Tereza. I could spend all day photographing the ocean!! Peter

We have lived close to the sea and/or ocean all our lives with the result that about 75% of all the photos I take have that main theme. Incidentally my name is Peter – georgieboy98 is just a computer name that I use on Webshots and other sites. Peter
