Arequipa, Peru´ 2006 ! Monastery of Santa Catalina !
These woods whisper so loudly, and grow with such a brute force unto me, that no matter what, all I can do is to retreat to contemplation… History and facts: / “The Convent of Capuchos of Sintra is one of the many examples of 16th century religious piety in Portugal and became known for the extreme simplicity of its construction. Built on a very small scale with cells and dormitory lined with cork and a chapel whose vault is formed by rock itself. / The Convent followed the principle of universal fraternity and brotherhood of the Franciscan monks. The inhabitants belonged to the Province of Arrábida (South of Lisbon), of the Order of Friars Minor Regular and Observant (Grey Friars). José Ramos
Something a little different from me here. A3 shot HDR of the old Convent, Penola Road Mt Gambier this afternoon with powerful stormy clouds in the background. When processing this the effects were quite different than my normal HDR’s but I liked the outcome even though it is almost comic book style. Thought I’d throw it up here for comment both good and bad to see what others think. Not something I’d like to do often but the different style interested me. Canon 400D – 18- 55 lens at 22 CIR polarising filter, processed in Photomatix.
I’ve altered this a little with Adobe…

This was taken, while I was waiting for the breakfast session at the FGBMFI Convention at the Geelong Conference Centre in the Eastern Park, Geelong.
Just 2 show that I still know how to hold a camera steady enough 2 actually frame a photo through the view finder. Conventional, only if I really desire 2 do so of course yet I do not usually do so. I tend to live for those happy accidents in my daily way of photographing. I like to describe this process as looking without looking, more of a kind of blind accidental photography, a very instinctual & gut process without rules on framing an image. Create your own rules & U then create your own particular style of course.
Collingwood Convent – looks best viewed large as I’ve got some canvas texture going on in it that I’m really happy with.
Taken at Daylesford Vic.

These wonderful old buildings are part of the old Convent in Abbotsford. It’s well worth a visit, has a great bakery and cafe, as well as Artist’s Markets on the first and third Sundays every month. / This photograph was featured in the Red Bubble groups Postcard Style and Full Frontal Facades, and was voted into the Top Ten of the Full Frontal Facades group challenge OLD Facades / / /
