The Photographer

I think all togs have been in this positions at some stage, no not the dude out there, but me, dealing with the crowds of people 😉 ok ok, maybe just the one dude and admittingly he was there first! Turimetta is one of those location in Sydney which has just become synonymous with photography and as a result on any given sunrise or sunset I reckon you would have tog out there bent over a tripod striking a blow for photography freedom 😉

Anyway, when all else fails, use what is presented to you to make the best shot you can, I did as such 🙂 Cheers dude for standing still for over a minute 🙂

Usually its +Suren J or +Rodney Campbell in my shot, but this time rodney was playing on the muddy cliffs and Suren was finding solace in the waves:)

Single frame, there was a dabbling of lightpainting from the left side of the scene, just to give some extra illumination to those sweet textures in the pipeline.

As always, I welcome any suggestions, comments and improvements to my photography, they are always warmly welcomed.

Capturing the Channel

buy your ticket from ticketek 😉

A pretty famous spot just off Narabeen behind the pool, you need a ticket to shoot this place, even on a quiet day or a day with mediorce conditions you will be assured to find a photographer out trying to nail the next best shot.

It is a pretty photogenic channel and there is a conveniently placed pool inflow/outflow pipe for which one could only imagine designed and placed with the photographer in mind!

I had to clone all the other photographers out 🙂
