Most Photographed Boatshed in Perth
Perth, Western Australia on A calm summers night. Canon EOS 40D. Featured In: Canon DSLR, Capital cities of the World. Perth, The Fine Art of Photography, WA Red Bubbles Mk II, Western Australia. Viewed 1280 Times.
One of Perth’s most photographed waterscape. The best photographs tend to be those unplanned moments that don’t come along all to often, when mother nature and timing cross paths. As Ansell Adam said: ””A good photograph is knowing where to stand”” but I think it is also knowing…when. I think I was extremely luck to catch this moment, as I have seen hundreds of photos of this place, but I think I have captured the amazing symmetry that the nature hides most of the time.
Mother Nature, best artist in the world.

Taken on a day so cold that it was almost unbearable to be holding a camera with no gloves on but soooo worth it!

Western Australia and the city of Perth…...... across the Swan River
A winter`s evening on the Swan river with the reflections of the City of Perth. I had to wait awhile to shoot this image as some months before there had been a gas explosion up north and WA was on limited gas supplies and consequently all the city`s lights were getting turned off, however I think it worked in my favour, as the cooler winter weather enhanced the blues of the image.
