  • Bridge near Coalcliff, NSW, Australia

  • For some reason when the scene first presented itself I thought of the Song “Ventura Highway” by America, one of my all-time favourites. The weirdness off and beauty off this son is something I like to capture in my photographs. Please also visit my photoblog . Cheers Alex

  • Taken while driving over Sea Cliff Bridge between Stanwell Park and Wollongong, about an hour and a half south of Sydney. Definitely worth a look – an architect’s dream!

  • Taken looking south to Wollongong from Providential Point, Royal National Park, just south of Sydney Australia. / This is my first attempt at a multi-exposure blend. This image is a combinations of 57 X 30sec exposures using the fantastic Startrails Photoshop Action that you can download free from this excellent site: / www.schursastrophotography.com/software/photoshop/startra… I was put on to this action by Dave Burrow whose amazing startrails image can be seen here: / http://www.redbubble.com/people/davidburrows/art/321722-3-startrails The brilliant thing about this PS action is that the longest exposure you need to take is 30sec and so it virtually eliminates the noise problem of conventional long exposure startrails. You can imagine how much noise this shot would have as a 30min exposure. / The straight lines are some of 9 planes that flew through these exposures over the half-hour I was taking them – amazingly consistent flight paths. It got so busy I had to delete some of the planetrails, hence the little gaps in the startrails.

  • Wollongong Breakwater Lighthouse, Wollongong, NSW, Australia. After traveling 3 1/2 hours to do some work at Wollongong, I noticed some storm clouds rolling in. I was down near the water having a look around at the scenery and lined the shot up to get the breakwater, the lighthouse and the clouds all together. 3 Exp HDR / 3 Image Panorama / Canon 350D / Lens: 18-55mm EF-S / Focal length: 18mm / ISO: 100 / Tripod Mounted / Photomatix Pro, Photoshop CS4, Lightroom 2 [info] / The Wollongong Breakwater Lighthouse or known affectionally as “Old Wollongong Lighthouse” by the locals was built in 1871 after an earlier request made by the Wollongong Borough Council in 1866 to help mariners safely nagvigate the port of Wollongong in the early days of the coal industry in the Illawarra region. It is situated in the Belmore Basin on the southern breakwater, within walking distance to its newer twin, the Wollongong Head Lighthouse. / Designed by Edward Moriarty, the Engineer-in-Chief of Harbours and Rivers Department, the tower is constructed of wrought iron on a ferro-concrete base to survive any gale force weather in the area. It is one of the two towers in New South Wales made from wrought iron plates—another identical one was built at Ulladulla Breakwater which later moved to Warden Head. Its construction was delayed by heavy seas which the tower did survive through. Until the lighthouse came into service, a temporary red light was fixed in a box at the end of the pier. Its lantern was installed in July 1871 but its light was not exhibited regularly until January 1872. / Due to poor maintenance of the wrought iron plates in later years, its support fixtures and foundation had deteriorated so much that the lighthouse was considered unsafe and slated for demolition in the 1970s. However, the Wollongong community called for its retention and local organisations subsequently contributed to its restoration then and again in 2002. The old lighthouse has become an icon of Wollongong for its part played in its history and is often depicted on its tourist brochures and even appears as an emblem on the pocket of a local high school uniform. / The new Wollongong Head Lighthouse was constructed on Flagstaff Point to the south of the Breakwater in 1937 and took over as the major light in the harbour in 1974. Though decommissioned now, it is still fully functional and its lights are only relit to mark special maritime occasion nowadays. (Wikipedia)
