Barry,

Cheers.

I couldn't see the small child's head until you pointed it out to me on the iPhone. Now, I can't stop looking at this image to see if there are other goodies sprinkled throughout!

Can you see the small child's head poking above the rock almost centre of the photo? My wife spotted it in mine and said it is spooky! It is a perfect head and eyes popping up and looking out of the water.
Troy,

Well, did you get off your butt and take some images? It's good fun!

Peter,

Thank you! Barry pointed out several faces and features when I met up with him after taking this image. I'm still looking for more!

Unspeakable evil from another dimension. Definately!
Adam,

The 30 second exposure was due to us shooting in very, very low light. It was getting difficult to focus on things it was that dark. My circular polarizer adds about 2-stops of exposure from memory, so, that also helps.

Michael,

Thank you so much, mate. You'll have to join us on one of our trips to the bush, if you like.

The camera is a remarkable instrument and I'm learning what it can do all the time. To say I'm happy with it is an understatement -- it's a dream come true. People can go on and on about what camera is better than what, but, I typically find they're the people who are pixel peepers and aren't capable of making a beautiful photo if their life depended on it.

I like the results you obtain with the 5D Mk II and L series glass, its excellent quality gear and you take full advantage of its potential.

Jimmy,

You crazy! I can't help but look at that woman-like figure there, now. Barry showed me the old man fishing, as well.

Then what about that man sitting at the bottom of the falls, leaning over. Fishing?? Doing up his shoe laces??
That's one big eerie picture
Thanks everyone.
