A photograph taken bushwalking, which became the perfect natural frame. The words were written after I lost my grandmother, one of those times when you re-evaluate your life.
Corellas dance a tango along power lines.
After a few strange looks when mentioning I was “going shooting”, I came up with this. It should explain everything!
These cuties were born not long after I was married and feeling ridiculously high on love. I am a hopeless romantic and I make no apologies for it! Featured in Bubblers Weekly Challenge and now on the RB Homepage Sunday 26th July, 2009! Yippeeee!
It was a cactus! Simple spikes! Nikon D80
I love the way this tree’s many frilly skirts have been pulled back to reveal its naked trunk.
A friend’s fabulous old ford on the hilltop at his farm. Love the contrast of the decaying truck and the luscious green growth of the grass…the old being reclaimed by the new.
Our local railway line lays unused now, slowly being reclaimed by its surroundings. Nikon D80 with 18-200VR lens @ 18mm / ISO400 / f/9 / 1/200
While this is a macro of a tree trunk in all its armoured glory, I like to see it as an aerial view over the Land Of Tipi, as the sun sets and casts long shadows across the land! Taken at Brisbane’s Mt Tomah Botanic Gardens.
An Aussie Gum dances across the grasslands on the Central Coast, NSW, OZ.
A beautiful elephant plant leaf photographed from the underside!
One for the tree huggers and leaf lovers! This was a brand new budding leaf, just starting to grow and uncurl.
Same pier at Maroochydore, same day…sunset. Long exposure on a tripod. ...earlier that morning, it looked like this… ...about one hour later…
Taken from the rear balcony of our house looking south. One amazing light show for around an hour! 30 sec exposure / f/11 / ISO 100 / 24mm prime lens / Nikon D80
I see a romantic rusty nail, taking his beloved length of string with her flowing dress, and dancing a passionate tango along the gnarly old fence line! They embrace and end with a kiss… Nikon D80 / ISO 200 / f/5 / 1/60 sec / 105 mm
Pink plastic beads…the only thing that makes them pretty for me is the shallow DOF!
Driving home we took a turn down a side road “cos it looked interesting”! We do that… It led us to Clarrie Hall Dam on the NSW North Coast. This is the top of the spillway. Nikon D700 with 105mm / ISO 200 / f/5 / 1/160 and then lomo’d using PS! Now showing in a calendar here…
Walking along a marshland boardwalk through a sea of grass. Nikon D700 with 24-70mm
The pier at Maroochydore River again! Early morning, about an hour after sunrise… Nikon D80 with 18-200mm / ISO 250 / f/7 / 1/160 Cross processed in PS…my first attempt!
Long exposures at night I love. Went to a local lookout recently to play around with the traffic flow. After 15 minutes and a few good results later, I was getting bored. Boredom lead to playing and this is the result…all in camera, no post processing on this at all. So how…Nikon D700 with fixed 105mm lens, 100 ISO, 30 second exposure @ f/18 and all on a tripod using manual focus. For the last 10 seconds of the shot, I rotated the focus ring back and forward from one extreme to the other slowly and with care to avoid any motion blur…this is what showed up. If you take a close look you can see the shape of the aperture blades in the light beams, at least I think that’s what it is anyway. I think I will call it the rock-a-bye-baby technique! Now showing in a calendar here…
Playing around for an assignment on ‘kitchen utensils’...this is the one that I immediately liked. Nikon D700 with 24-70mm / ISO 160 / f/5.6 / 1/3 on a tripod
23.09.09 – An amazing red ball of dust swept through New South Wales leaving everything in its wake clothed in a beautiful gritty layer of orange and red. This is a tree in our street and the small bright speck is the sun. Today you could comfortably look directly at the sun without sunglasses and it had a slight blueness about it. This shot taken at around 11 in the morning, the light was highly diffused and quite eerie. Nikon D700 with 24-70mm and a raincoat to keep out the dust! Now showing in a calendar here…
