Lizard.

Lizard.

Well thats a weekend we are not gonna forget for awhile.

Here’s a picture of a cool lizard using a lens that cost me less than 200 bucks (several years ago) and was made in the 80’s. To continue that trivia, there was about 140 thousand of these lens made. New stuff is cool, but sometimes old stuff is cooler, even when its harder to use 🙂 reminds me of photography is really about, taking the time to shoot each frame and not just smashing blindly on that shutter button (or smart phone).

The difference in shutter speed. Two pictures to illustrate the difference between a slower shutter and a faster and ho wit can give a picture a more dynamic feel or sense of speed.

so many awesome puns to be had for boats

Did you know that puns can be a sign of above-average intelligence?

What did Rodney Campbell say to Melinda Chewlun who showed up super-late for their cruise?… “It’s a-boat time.” 🙂 gold! and buoy, these views where incredible.

What do you call a boat with AI? Row-bot.
Well, plank you very much, I’ll let myself out.

here’s a big boi ship. 4+ shot panos. With the opera house in the shot it gives you an idea of the size of these floating hotels…

Litchfield.

Litchfield.
Place is full of waterfalls, and crocodiles.. and probably a dozen other things ready to kill you. Cool place though, would be great to be able to explore a bit more than just the waterfall lookouts.

Every trip I take to snow my kids always request (emotional blackmail some may call it) I take along a toy who wants to travel the world and keep me company 🙂 luckily this one was small and light and also self sufficient, had backpack on with a plethora of useful stuff 🙂 custom warm coat and a pride badge 🙂

Don’t lose sight of the bigger picture. Put yourself in a position where you can

Don’t lose sight of the bigger picture. Put yourself in a position where you can see everything (well as much as you reasonably can). If you can’t se the other side, your doing it wrong.

A collection of Big Skies of the hills in Kosi.

There are some cool shots of Cootapatamba Hut in there, gives you some scale to the scene – if you can find it 🙂 look for the river and the little red dot.
