This old rustic fence running off down the hill with it’s slotted holes in the misty morning of a cold grey Macedon day looked good with the lone tree as a backdrop.
When the conditions are right where I live we experience the wonderful phenomena of sea fog. The first one I experienced was when I was “in between” cameras. I was devastated! I have been hoping ever since that we would get another one… I peered out the window today while I was on the phone and saw that today was the day! I had to make my apologies to my friend on the phone – a girl has to get her priorities right – and happily spent the next two hours snapping, with my young boys as my photography assistants. The title of this piece is inspired by one of my favourite scenes in Lord of the Rings. Gandalf the mighty wizard gives his life to ensure the freedom of his friends… and so my friend today gave to me the same gift of freedom as I hastily hung up the phone to explore my sea fog.
An IR shot…...surprise, surprise.. / / Without the wonders of an ir filter this was just an ordinary paddock…green grass, a lone tree and a flowing river.
Found this magnificent tree today and had to take it’s picture….....yes….in infrared..lol / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /
I travel on this road 5 days a week as I head to & from work. On this morning the lighting was so good I stopped several times to take snaps. This is one of the snaps taken that morning. Thought I’d share it with everyone here in Redbubble Land. / This one is a small thank you to everyone who has stopped by & viewed my work. Also thanks to everyone who has left me a kind comment; sorry if I have not got back to you all. / Best wishes & kind regards to everyone over the festive period & beyond. Peace to you all. / /

I’ve been playing with this shot for way too long. I’ve done about 8 versions and can’t decide which one, if any, I like best. This is the one I’m posting…any feedback would be great – you know how it is when you overwork something – can’t see the good bits through all of the annoying bits. / / / Camera: FujiFilm FinePix S7000 / Location: Tumut in the Land of Oz / / ISO200 / f/8 / 4.0sec exposure / R72 filter / Tripod / / POSTSCRIPT / / After reading everyones comments, I’m changing my opinion of this pic now. I’ve looked at the other 7 versions and this one is definately the best, actually by a long way so I’m glad I persisted with it…I think I’m happy with it now….and besides my limited photoshopping skills have run out – I wouldn’t know what else to do with it anyway….lol
I took this shot from the Windsor turf farms today while following a storm which hit about 5 minutes later.. It is an HDR shot and I think HDR was the right choice as it shows details in both the sky and landscape.. / I have always wanted to try and get a storm shot while down at the turf farms because the scene just looks so typically australian to me.. / I decided to include the gate to break up the scene a bit and add something more to view than just turf and the sky.. / Anyway as usual all comments and/or thoughts are welcome.. / Thanks for having a look!

Image of a post taken through the wire hole of another post in the same fence. The remains of this very old barrier were found in the Coorong National Park, South Australia which is suffering terribly from the drought. Last year water in the Coorong would have prevented me from taking this shot. Canon 400D with 18 – 55 lens.
An abandoned Victorian Italianate style house (c.1880-90) in Annandale, an inner city suburb of Sydney. Sitting proudly in a corner position of this hip and happening suburb, it had once been loved and cared for – if you look closely, you can see that one of the previous owners, at some stage, installed an alarm – a measure sure to deter possible intruders. Today, some of the lacework is missing, the fence posts have deteriorated, the concrete probably has cancer, the garden is full of weeds, steps to the front door are missing…will nobody love it anymore?
The warmth of a foggy dawn is reflected in the wet grass and the posts of this farming fenceline.

Out for hours on a perfect day out with my new dslr it took ages to get far as I kept stopping to try things like this…. bliss! Taken outside Peebles in the lovely scottish borders on a bright frozen frosty day – not a snowflake in sight.. its all frost left over from 24 hours of damp freezing fog… Nikon d60, Nikkor 18-200 lens, UV filter / f/3.5 / 1/500 sec / ISO-100 / focal length 18mm Tips and comments hugely appreciated as ever on this early attempt…untouched . / . / cheers / ding / :)) / http://www.redbubble.com/people/dinghysailor1/art/2153518-3-poor-lambs
A scene reminiscent of some work places – everyone trying to climb to the top! Seems these snails felt the need to climb high onto an old fence post between Carpenters Rocks and Blackfellows Caves in the Limestone Coast region of South Australia. This is a common sight at this time of the year where common paddock snails congregate on anything off the ground… Canon 400D, 18-55 lens with CIR Polariser.
Captured this beautiful fall scene while on a motorcycle ride to Georgia, Nov. 2008. Didn’t seem fair to be separated from the beauty on the other side by that fence, so I just included it as well. Taken with Nikon D300 and Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8. / Light HDR processing and some Dodge & Burn applied.
Barbed wire fence partially submerged in a lake. Taken shortly after ‘Lakeside’ also in my folio. / Canon 5D mkII 24-70 f2.8L.
