I ventured up to Mountain Lagoon in the Blue Mountains of NSW today to head into the exquisite Wollemi National Park to check out the sights.. / The national park is the 2nd largest national park in NSW and is home to the famous Wollemi Pine that has existed since prehistoric times. The Wollemi National Park is located about 129km northwest of Sydney.. / The blue tinge to the mountains in the distance comes from the gases given off by the eucalyptus trees and is what gives the mountain ranges their name. This particular shot is an HDR comprised of 7 shots taken from the top of a cliff looking west over the mountain ranges towards an oncoming storm. Best viewed LARGE Settings / Camera: Nikon D40 / Lens: Nikon 18-55mm Nikkor Kit Lens / Date: 24/03/2007 / Time: 4:45pm / Focal Length: 18mm / Shutter Range: 1/800 to 1/13 / Aperture: f/13 / ISO: 200

Another from the pine forest in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney, Sunday 20 April. With the picturesque shack, lichen covered pine trees, red mushrooms, and then the mist rolling in, I was torn in so many directions – in the end I made an attempt to get all elements in the one shot! / / Margo has kindly provided me with the following info on the red mushrooms – glad I didn’t taste any – I could have flown like Santa’s reindeers!!! / / (1) The Fly Agaric Amanita muscaria is the famous white-spotted red toadstool beloved of children’s book illustrators. They are widely known as one of the few poisonous fungi in the UK, but it is not generally realised that this is because they are in fact strongly psychedelic. Eaten raw, they cause stomach cramps, hallucinations1 and, possibly, death. In some parts of Europe they have long been associated with magic and legend. In Lapland, reindeer regularly get high on them and are seen to leap around, giving rise to the story of Santa’s flying reindeer. Lapps have a custom of deliberately feeding them to their deer, and then collecting and drinking the urine because most of the toxins are filtered out by the reindeer’s digestive system. 1 They are not the same thing as ‘magic mushrooms’. (2) Also, ‘toad-stuhl’ is a German name meaning ‘seat of death’. _ / Landscapes Trees Cards EOD Rusty Flowers Architecture Macro CatchAll DM / /

I ventured up to Leura Cascades in the Blue Mountains today to try my hand at some waterfall photography.. This was one of the results, I hope you like it!! I used a circular polarizer to darken the scene and allow longer shutter speeds to capture the water flow better.. / Thanks very much for looking, comments and critiquing are most welcome.. Best Viewed LARGE EXIF / Date: 23/05/2008 @ 2:16pm / Camera: Nikon D40 / Lens: Nikon 18-55mm II / Focal Length: 22mm / Aperture: f/18 / Shutter: 20 seconds / ISO: 200 Looks great as a framed print, don’t you think? :P /

The legendary Will Barton led two waterfall expeditions in the Blue Mountains this weekend – along with Warren Williams from Sth Africa, and Brett Still from Sydney, I was privileged to be able to take part in today’s shoot. THANK YOU Will for your patience, and your help! Here is offering No 1 – a small cameo of the stunning Bridal Veil Falls. SOLD Black matted print of this shot to an anonymous purchaser 12 March 09 … THANK YOU!! EXIF: / Aperture priority / F14 / 7 seconds / ISO 160 (the Sony R1 doesn’t go any lower) / Centreweighted It is VERY interesting to compare the shutter speed here with that in Leura Cascades No 1 – 7 seconds Vs 1/6 second.

Leura Cascades, Blue Mountains, NSW Found this photo from my recent trip while looking for some archived photos. Thus is my first photo of a waterfall. It was in early morning light with sun at the top of the cascades so I got glare on a lot of the photos. Thank you for looking, please view larger, critique welcome

MUCH BETTER VIEWED LARGER ThankYou For dropping in and viewing my latest work, for those who Favourite I am Honoured Isntt it wonderful when you get up early, set your camera on a tripod and that great photographer in the sky blesses you with that magic moment ! The roadside Pearsons Lookout, on the Castlereagh Highway just south of Capertee village, gives a view over the expansive Capertee Valley / Surrounded by the wonders of World Heritage listed wilderness, the Capertee valley is the world’s second largest canyon. Capertee is 1 kilometre longer than the Grand Canyon, but not quite as deep. Sandstone cliffs dominate the escarpment, drawing down into a deep chasm carved into the environment over millions of years. With tranquil vistas and serene mountain landscapes the Capertee Valley is abundant in flora and wildlife. Under the sandstone layer stretches an enormous layer of coal and oil shale. Rising majestically out of the valley floor is a monolith in size and spectacle. The impressive peak, Pantoney’s Crown, beckons the keen walker to climb its summit. From the top a 360° panorama, of the dramatic and breathtaking valley. The Capertee valley is located in The Gardens Of Stone National Park The Blue Mountains if a World Heritage Area , a few hours by road west of Sydney and are a must when visiting Sydney. Equipment: Nikon D300, / Technique: GET UP WAY TOO EARLY take 5 bracketted images then run it through Photomatix Pro. Then tidy up image lightly in Capture NX

The Legend of the Three Sisters / Long ago in the Blue Mountains there lived three Aboriginal sisters. They were Meenhi, Wimlah and Gunnedoo, whose Witch Doctor father was called Tyawan. Only one creature was feared by all … the Bunyip who lived in a deep hole. When Tyawan had to pass the hole, he would leave his daughters safely on the cliff behind the rocky wall. One day, waving goodbye to his daughters, he descended the cliff steps. On top of the cliff a big centipede suddenly appeared and frightened Meenhi, who threw a stone at it. The stone rolled over the cliff and crashed into the valley. Birds, animals and fairies stopped still as the rocks behind the three sisters split open, leaving them on a thin ledge. The angy Bunyip emerged to see the terrified sisters in the valley. Tyawan saw the Bunyip close to his daughters so he pointed his magic bone at the girls and turned them to stone. They would be safe there until the Bunyip had gone and then Tyawan would return them to their former selves. The Bunyip then chased Tyawan who found himself trapped, so he changed himself into a Lyre Bird. Everyone was safe, but Tyawan had dropped his magic bone. After the Bunyip had gone, Tyawan searched and searched for his bone … and he is still searching. The Three Sisters stand silently watching him from their ledge, hoping he’ll find the bone and turn them back to Aboriginal girls. As you look at the Three Sisters, you can hear Tyawan … the Lyre Bird … calling his daughters as his search for the lost bone continues…......... This view is from one of the many lookouts on Cliff Drive at Katoomba in the Blue Mountains NSW Australia. It looks directly at the Three Sisters with the Skyway and Katoomba Falls (out of view) located to the left of the picture. The Three Sisters can be accessed from Echo Point and are the icon figure of the Blue Mountains. In the background you will see the typical blue haze attributed to the eucalypt mist that is present most days in this area and from which the area was originally named – The Blue Mountains. /

I went to The Blue Mountains for the Queens birthday weekend 2007. This was the week end that storms lashed much of New South Wales and the Pasha Bulker was washed in to shore. So it was rainning most of the time, leaving little opportunity for shooting . On the monday morning we got up early and headed off to Wentworth, on our way back to Melbourne and this was the result. / Shot with a 30D and 17-85mm lens.

At this time of the year the Amanita muscaria (also known as fly agaric) grow in profusion in the pine needles of this forest in the Blue Mountains (NSW, Australia). I believe they have magic qualities if eaten (I can imagine!!) ... there must be some very happy little creatures around as a lot of the mushrooms have holes in them! This time last year, I shot Persistence in the same area. Featured in Retired and Happy Group in May 2009 Landscapes Trees Cards EOD Rusty Flowers Architecture Macro CatchAll DM

Some of you might remember the 1st version of Mermaids Cave and wonder why I would bother with a 2nd version. Well, the reason was that it was to fill a space in our home which is quite dark and the 1st painting was really lost there. Also, although I loved the 1st version for a lot of reasons I wasn’t happy with a few of the design elements so I thought I’d try again. So… I changed a few things in the composition and decided to do a ‘lighter/brighter version’ for the dark space on the wall! However, things never go to plan and this work was no exception!! It kept moving in directions I hadn’t intended!!! In the end I stopped fighting and let it have it’s way… When it was finished (although when is it ever finished in my critical mind…lol!) I didn’t think I liked it as much as the 1st version… but now I’ve lived with it for a week or 2 I think I like it just as much but for different reasons… it has it’s own qualities… Anyway… see what you think… but believe me the next painting you see here will NOT be another version of this!!! : ) 1/09/09 Today the newsletter for the group “Vibrations in Art and Verse – Vavoom” was delivered to my inbox. You could imagine my surprise when I discovered that not only was my painting “Mermaids Cave #2” featured but that I was a featured artist AND the very talented Lisa Jewell had written a poem inspired by my painting!!! WOW!!! Lisa has very kindly allowed me to share her work here… Thanks Lisa… xx ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mermaids Cave #2 through the waves of / this day into the next / I stroke / a tail tone from / my blessed palette / creating / a earth dwelling / for / you / to visit / each eve / at the coming of dusk / I will / wait / leaving behind my palette / to float the ocean bed / my / flesh / longs to be held / by you / my earth lover LISA J / 2009

The weather for this years Winter Magic Festival was a bit of everything. But even though there was rain and fog and it was cold… it didn’t stop the crowds from enjoying themselves! Late in the afternoon the mist started to roll in and it was getting dark.. a few storeholders were starting to pack up but the street was still full of people. I took a photo at the time because I really liked the atmosphere and then when I had my week away recently, I let myself start to play with it! This is the result so far… I think I would like to try a few other ideas too… : )) Mixed Media on canvas paper. / 40.5×60
