Hi Guys, I thought it might be time i tried again in this section, so I have one from our travels of the numerous cliffs along the Coast line of Kalbarri WA, hope you like it.
This image was taken during a landscape photography workshop. It's a stitched pano of 10 frames. The exposures were 1.6 seconds at f20. Taken in the golden dawn light. I'm still getting over the workshop - 5 long days with pre-dawn starts and late nights partying. Highly recommend Freycinet as a destination - the seascapes are impressive. I had great success with my 9stop ND filter. I'll post some pics in the John West thread!
Hope you enjoy it - it's destined for the wall in our lounge room.
I had a full moon behind me setting in the west,and took this ages ago with my crappy 300D and cheap 17-85 lens.I hope its ok to put this in,I see some very high standard images with some great gear.
Well this was a great excuse to go down the coast for a drive, Sunday, mothers day. Take the cook out for lunch down to Apollo Bay, go for a walk on the beach, oh and I'll just grab a couple of pictures while I'm here.
No flies on her though, she was right onto me, "You just want some pictures for the Seascapes thing don't you" she says while standing in the icy cold wind blowing off the Antarctic ice shelf.
Just a couple more I said, I think it was a 170 something.
Thank god for digital cameras.
Anyway always gloomy weather when I go down there for some reason so the one I chose in the end is below.
Pentax K5 with Pentax DA*300mm f4.
Rolling surf with Apollo Bay in the background.
Hope you like it.
Taken on my recent honeymoon. Looking at Manhattan from the Brooklyn shore.
Taken with Canon 350D - iso probably 800 and about 20sec exposure I think. I took a whole series but I like the plane in this one even though the composition's not great.
I took this photo last week at Truk Lagoon in Micronesia. It is an engine & propellor from a Mitsubishi "Betty" bomber that was shot down during Operation Hailstone in 1944. You can see it is morphing into a coral reef: war wreckage turning into part of the sea.
Wave over Bombora, Paradise Cove Oahu, Hawaii November 2010.
I got in a good deal of trouble taking this photo. We were supposed to be somewhere weaving a grass hat, threading beads, throwing spears and singing songs (or at least I was supposed to be taking pictures of SWMBO doing some of these things) as part of activities at a luau we attended.
But, when I saw this glorious sunset coming, I couldn't resist buggering-off around the corner somewhere quiet to take a few (hundred) pics for about 30 minutes of this scene (it seemed more like 5 minutes to me).
When I was found, I tried to explain that living in Sydney I almost never get to photograph a sunset over water, but my plea didn't wash ...
Here is one from a couple of weeks ago. Have taken so many images of the sea, palms and Islands of late (with planets) that saw no need to take any more.
