A house on a hill with a full moon behind. This is exactly as I saw it.
Sometimes even mistakes can turn out right. Here I woke up really early, way too early as I misjudged the time for a sunrise. So for an hour or so I was just waiting for the light. As the moon descended this opportunity arouse. This shot is taken at a point where on one side of the beach you can see east and watch the sunrise and basically just turn around and face west and watch the moon set. At this point the resort was abandoned, hence the chair. I only moved it slightly to improve the composition.

I was driving along a road in a seaside town at Jervis Bay National Park, just 2.5 hours south of Sydney Australia when I glimpsed this moon through some trees with a pathway of silver light across the water. A lucky moment, in that all the elements were there but tricky in putting them together because it was so dark I couldn’t see anything through the viewfinder and had to keep taking pics, viewing them on the LCD display and then moving the tripod to get the composition I wanted. / It looks to me like the trees on either side of the moon are partners about to dance onto the floor of some enchanted ballroom.

Worth going to the larger view – lots more stars. / I shot this in winter under a full moon at about midnight at Lake Eucumbene in the Snowy Mountains, Australia. This was my first shoot outside at night in winter. It was minus 5 degrees and when I got back home and my fingers started to thaw out I couldn’t believe the pain – Lesson 1 for winter night shots – wear mittens at the very least! / These trees were drowned along with a whole valley to create a man-made lake as part of a hydro scheme in the 1950s. They’ve resurfaced as a result of a drought we’ve been having for the last few years courtesy of global warming.

This is untouched; taken on the morning of 01/22/08 on my way to work. I had pulled over several times and shot this in different stages of setting…...I hope you enjoy. ____ All The Materials Contained May Not Be Reproduced, Copied, Edited, Published, Transmitted Or Uploaded In Any Way Without My Permission.

Long exposure taken looking north to Sydney from Bundeena Cliffs Royal National Park under a full moon. It was almost dead calm at sea level but the clouds above were rocketing past. The little white streaks in the sky are small startrails. Canon 30D / Tv: 59 secs / Av: f/4.5 / ISO: 200 / FL: 13mm
On the way out to get take-aways one night I was presented with this vista. One of those glad-I-had-the-camera-in-the-boot moments.
Lee dancing on the cliff edge. The colour in the top cloud is the moon halo. The good news for this shot was that this lovely rockpool lined up beautifully with the moonpath. The bad news was that the rockpool was perched on the edge of a cliff and between the top of the pool and the edge of the cliff there was only an 8” sliver of rock for Lee to stand on. Plus it was blowing a gale (that blur at Lee’s back is her hair blowing in the wind and the chill factor was less than 10 degrees). All Lee had on was this strapless flimsy dress and she kept having to hop out of shot to put her coat and boots on to warm up. And then the idiot photographer would say things to her like “Can you do some rotating pirouettes?” and she had to remind him “You know I’m standing on the edge of a cliff here!” and then shed did them anyway!! It certainly helped that Lee used to be a gymnast but brave or what!! So who would like to volunteer to be my next model :-) Shot off the Bundeena Cliffs, Royal National Park, Sydney Australia.

Yep this is a moonrise, not a sunrise. I’ve never seen such an orange moon rising as on this night. This is one photo from a sequence of 135 I shot of the moonrise, which I’ve turned into a timelapse – you can see one hour of moonrise in 30 seconds here And can I also get your help? I can’t make up my mind which crop I like best so can you tell me whether you like #1, #2, or #3 and I’ll post the most popular up.

Night at Wattamolla Lagoon Falls under a full moon – the Lagoon was inky black under the moon – talk about Creature from the Black Lagoon material. Very spooky and very beautiful at the same time – not a soul around for miles (well none that I saw anyway), Shot at Wattamolla, Royal National Park, just south of Sydney. Canon 30D / Tv: 93secs / Av: f/4.5 / ISO: 200 / FL: 21mm cropped This image was just nominated by Lee Martin for the wonderful Pay It Forward Group. Thanks for the generous nomination and comment Lee. / This is what he had to say about Falling Through Moonlight: / “As it uses natural moonlight, something not mant of would try, I think this is one of the finest images I have seen”
Man this was one of the hardest shots I’ve taken. It’s a moonlit wave breaking against a cliff. The problem is that in order to shoot water under moonlight you have to do a long exposure (usually over 5 seconds) but when you do that it all tends to smooth out and lose any shape to the wave. In order to get the action of the wave break therefore I had to keep the exposure to at least a second. But to do that I had to push the ISO through the stratoshphere (ISO 1600) and then had a tonne of noise to get rid of. Anyway, I kind of like the result and thought I’d put it up to see what you think. The light parts of the sky are actually the seaspray caught in the light of the moon which is just out of frame. / If you’ve never seen storm waves under a full moon you really are missing something spectacularly beautiful. This sea swell was 4m and those cliffs are 50m high so you can get an idea how big that wave break is. Just standing off to one side watching wave after wave pound against that cliff under the eery light of the moon was just sheer magic despite me and the gear getting absolutely soaked with seaspray. Hope the camera still works – too scared to test it – may have been the most expensive night out of my life lol. Canon EOS 1Ds MkIII / Tv: 1 sec / Av: f/2.8 / ISO: 1600 / FL: 1600

The moon this evening, shone through my being / withdraws my unsettled heart and danced with it, / the colors surrounded my spirit and swept me / towards the stars, embracing me with space… / The time passes with my earthly body, as minutes / yet my spirit soars for hours and my heart dances for days. / The earth draws me near, her strength pulls my spirit / and a force thrusts my heart, as my energy shines through. / TKRosevear 1992 Almost Full Moon
This shot was taken under a full moon at the top of Watamolla Gorge in Royal National Park, just south of Sydney Australia. You can see the cascade in the bottom left corner and the glow in the sky is from a neighbouring town. The sandstone in this gorge is amazing and varies from orange to bright red depending on whether its lit by the moon or sunlight. From here the water cascades in a series of waterfalls to a beautiful pool at the bottom. Unfortunately the falls face south and the moon is always in the north so I can’t get them lit by moonlight. They are the same falls as in Sunset Cascade taken from virtually the same position but facing south instead of north. This is one of my all time favourite places – night or day it’s magic.

Royal National Park is just 32 km south of Sydney, Australia. It is the secondest oldest national park in the world, being declared soon after Yellowstone in 1879. These images were taken over a 2 year period and represent my attempts to capture some of the incredible beauty of this magnificent park. All the images are real – no elements have been edited in.
Over the years, a variety of people, cultures, and species have been given credit for the building of Stonehenge. Some of the most legendary figures trying to take responsibility have included: / Giants: According to old myths, dancing giants were caught in a sunbeam and petrified to stone, causing the monument to be nicknamed the “Giant’s Ring”. The stones were also believed to have healing power. / Merlin and King Arthur: Some believe Merlin himself assembled Stonehenge to commemorate slain chieftains. It’s also rumored that the Sword in the Stone, which would eventually lead Arthur onto the throne and into legend, was made from Stonehenge Stones. / Aliens: Most of the world’s earliest and most elaborate crop circles are found within a forty-mile (64km) radius of Stonehenge. Scientists today are unable to replicate crop circles, suggesting that their construction and that of Stonehenge should perhaps be credited to a more intelligent species. / Atlanteans: According to Plato, the Kingdom of Atlantis controlled the islands of the Atlantic and built many stone structures to better predict future events based on astronomical calculations. Given the fate of Atlantis, which supposedly sank into the sea, it’s debatable how accurate their predictions could have been. / Druids: John Aubrey, a Stonehenge scholar, erroneously suggested this connection three centuries ago. The Druids are an earth-based faith that we now have formed much later than the building of Stonehenge. The Druids do celebrate the summer solstice, same as Stonehenge’s true builders, and they have recently made it a tradition to incorporate this ancient monument into current rituals. / The Beaker Folk from 2500 BC are believed to have done some of the work on Stonehenge. They were an aggressive culture that invaded the Salisbury Plain. From artifacts, we know that the Beakers were sophisticated, organized, understood mathmatics, worshipped the Sun, and celebrated the solstices. This makes them ideal builders for some of the site. / The other cultures that contributed to Stonehenge remain a mystery, though archaeologists are getting closer and closer to finding answers. This is a photograph of a full scale replica of Stonehenge that was erected as a WWI memorial by Sam Hill, in Maryhill, WA which overlooks the mighty Columbia River and Mount Hood. The photograph of the Full Moon was also taken by myself in October 2008, the two were merged and edited in photoshop7 with Redfield plug-in for the rippled water effect. Stonehenge
Full moon over Sydney taken from the track leading to Bundeena Cliffs in Royal National Park looking north towards the city. Sydney is often called the Emerald City because of its grandeur built on illusion and deception a la Wizard of Oz. But I’ve got to say that this night the light from the city reflecting on the low drifting clouds beneath the light of the moon made for a pretty special sight. But then that is the thing about Sydney – the allure of its style. Taken with the old Canon 30D / Tv: 2 secs / Av: f/3.2 / ISO: 400 / FL: 23mm
