I had a great long weekend of photography. Got out every morning… Friday to North Narrabeen pool, Saturday to Turimetta at high tide and this morning to Mona Vale pool. During my pre-dawn session yesterday at Turimetta I captured a couple of very interesting long exposure images of the ocean breaking against the rocks. I found the images quite intriguing …

In this post, I am going to describe my post processing to create this image The two starting images. I chose two exposures of the scene. One of them was reasonably exposed for the path and water (highlights did blow out a bit on the poles). The second image was a much longer 3 min exposure for the sky (click …

Last weekend I had a wonderful shoot down at Turrimetta. What a gorgeous place. It’s funny to think that I grew up in Sydney on the North Shore but never visited this jewel. Dad and I went out to Long Reef on Saturday for a dawn shoot, but in true Long Reef style, the sky was very boring. On the …

After returning from the USA, I didn’t pick up my camera for over a month. This was for a couple of reasons.1) I had 2 intense weeks of incredible shooting in some of the best landscape locations in the world.2) I wanted to spend time with my family after being away for a couple of weeks3) I had a lot …

Well this is my last night in the USA on my photographic trip with Dad. We just finished up a trip to Monument Valley and Canyon De Chally. To be honest I was a bit dissapointed with both of these locations compared to the wonderful places we went before. Part of my dissapointment lies in the Navajo guides that we …

I’m about half way through my photographic trip and all I can say is “wow”. I have seen some incredible locations and captured some wonderful images. Talk about photography overload. So far the trip has been Mono Lake Bodie Ghost Town Bryce National Park Escalante National Park Antelope Canyon Glen Canyon Recreation Area Here are a couple of my favorite …

Sitting at the airport waiting to board the plane. Can’t think of anything I have forgotten. The next two weeks are going to be fun, exciting, tiring, probably a bit overwhelming…. It will be interesting to see whether I get into photographic overload by the end of it.

This weekend was an awful one from a weather perspective… 3 Days of storms. However as they say every cloud has a silver lining. I got out on Sunday morning …

I have been thinking about photographing Port Botany for a while now. In fact I had a go a couple of months back, but didn’t research the location very well and suffered from a corrupt CF card, so ended up getting no usable pictures from that shoot. This time things were a bit different, I conducted a recce of the …

Today I was due to fly out to Brisbane on the 8AM flight. I figured I might have time to sneak in a quick sunrise shoot somewhere near the airport. After last weeks success with the Homebush Shipwreck photos, I figured it was worth it, and it certainly puts me in a great mood for the day. So I went …
