MUCH BETTER VIEWED LARGER Sydney is great for sunrises, it quite often receives spectacular sunrises as it greets the sunrises that appear from the east. This shot shows the city skyline as seen from North Sydney CBD on the northern shore of Sydney Harbour, in the foreground is Lavender Bay. Technique: HDR , 5 Bracketted images processed with Photomatix Pro with avery slight adjustment (sharpening & contrast) in Capture NX. Equipment: Nikon D300 , Nikon 18-200mm lens No filters or colour adjustment 1) RED SKY AT NIGHT… means that as the sun sets in the west, if it has a red hue or color to it, then the moisture was further west of their location. Thus SAILORS DELIGHT. A beautiful sunset. 2) RED SKY IN MORN…means that as the sunlight from the rising sun passes through moisture, it too will be red. This means that with the rotation of the earth, this will bring this moisture (and possible storm) right on top of them and it is only a few hours away. SO SAILORS TAKE WARN.” / I hope this bit of weather science helps.

Digital oil painting produced in Painter X
Westfield, NJ – April 2008
Featured in – The Birds, February 7, 2009 I can’t help but dream of summer, and much warmer temperatures, when I look at this image. This piece consists of 6 layers (the background, 5 different layers of pretty lavender blooms, and an adorable little american goldfinch). After merging all of the layers in PhotoShop I digitally painted the entire piece in Corel Painter X. My intent with the goldfinch was to make her look like a baby, that had just left the nest, and was still looking for Mom to bring her some food. / / Fine Art Gallery / Bird Gallery / ADD RENEE TO YOUR WATCHLIST
Ox-eye-daisies, white roses and lavender from my garden, Florabella textures applied to give a dreamy effect and its pouring with rain so I am slowly getting addicted to textures lol!

Photographing these tiny creatures isn’t my style. However, while in my back garden with the camera, I saw this little fellow buzzing over the lavender bush. I extended the zoom to its longest focal length, closed in and shot him a few times. Except for a bit of cropping, this photo is being presented ‘as-is’.

Remember Me…. / The idea came from watching an old 70’s BeeGee’s clip of Don’t Forget to Remember Me…it’s quite funny with the boys in full period dress singing a country ballad, but the song stayed with me all day.

A photo of St-Simeon’s pier, the most beautiful place I saw when I went for my little 3 days trip.While taking this shot ,a nice couple on a moto talked to me ,I ask for a little auberge to sleep for the night and they decided to invite me to their home.That’s Quebec,I would have done the same but it was a first for me…couldn’t believe it.I sent some photos by email and they were very happy.They are living at five minutes from there in a beautiful place called La Malbaie near the St-Lawrence river.The same day in the afternoon I took «Pointe-au-Père» and in the evening the sky became lavander blue,a real dream. / / /

This is the neon cuckoo bee (Thyreus nitidulus). drinking nectar from a lavender flower in rural Central Victoria, Australia. This species is counterpart to the blue-banded bee (Amegilla cingulata). (I was lucky enough to get a photo of that one, too!) Both are bees native to Australia. Both are solitary - in the sense that they do not form colonies with a queen - but a number of bees may build nests close together (I’m not sure if they build them adjacently or not). The cuckoo bees - as the name suggests - lay their eggs in nests built by the blue-banded ones. The cuckoo young eat the food stored by the blue-banded bee, leaving the blue-banded young to starve, and earning themselves the label ‘kleptoparasite’. Another redbubble photographer has some more photos of this species of bee.
part of a ttv (through the viewfinder) series Theory: / TTV (Through The Viewfinder) photography is when you use an old medium format camera and a digital camera. / These old medium format twin reflex cameras have large viewfinders. Firstly you compose your image using the medium format camera (in my case i have used a mamiya c33) then you actually take the picture using a digital camera (here i use my pentax K10) of what is in the viewfinder of the old camera.
When I saw this image…..Daydream popped in my head….Our daydreams normally can consist of fantasies, wishes, hopes, things that may seem surreal, or even just the need to briefly escape from our everyday lives….and to me…the beauty of how this flower is complemented and enhanced by the particular color of lilac background gives it a natural beauty that is almost unreal..There is such vivid and striking beauty that it is very unique and pure..yet it is so very gentle and soft at the same time…The way the light streams in on the blooms almost gives the feeling of hope…happiness…life… Whether this makes much sense or not as to where the title came from…I dont know…but that is just what I knew the title had to be…. It just felt right..
Divinity brings to mind so many things when we think about it. It can mean a moment of great peace in our life, when we feel closer to God. It can mean a piece of candy at holiday times, to which some people say makes them feel closer to God because of the “divine” taste. It can be an object of great beauty, when looked upon, makes you feel closer to God. I say, whatever it takes, do it. :o) Created in Apophysis.
BEST VIEWED LARGER Sunrise lights Lavender Bay is located on the North Shore of Sydney Harbour easily reached by ferry service from Sydney’s ferry terminus of Circular Quay. The buildings behind is the North Sydney CBD, this shot is the result of 5 bracketted images, processed in Photomatix HDR Software. No filters were used the only post production was the HDR software tonemapping and a touch of sharpening in Capture NX. My continued exploration of the HDR technique
