those pink Snails 🙂

Chaos v Snails

I did plan to capture the sunset, but when I mentioned the word snails and the word park, I certainly was not going alone 🙂 It actually turned out to be a bit of a fizzer sunset and it was great rack up some quality park time with chaos, third park in one day 🙂

On a side note, that must have been one big ass mould for these things….

Snail to Snail.

Chaos and I were gonna rearrange these plastic snails, but there were to many people around..and they are actually really heavy.

(how funny would it be to see one mounting the other?!, yeah I know immature..)

The Green Path

Posted on by

The way to salvation 😉

No HDR (multiple image blending), simply a GND filter and timing of the sun peeking over the horizon of cloud.

This is a good scenario for the use of your new Hitech reverse GND filter +Rodney Campbell and one where the 100*125 would be close to not covering the entire scene I think, hence the 100*150 is by far the right choice.

Sinister Glow

Be afraid of the sea, it claims many.

The first image of the morning, very rarely do I even keep the first image, however in this case I quite liked the moodiness and dark overtones.

Damn, i wish adulthood never destroyed my imagination! there is something amazing about a child's ability to take the simplest object and weave it inot a wonderful magical world where characters take on personalities and stories

So, to you toys makers out there…lets see if you can compete with a toilet roll, a tissue, a sticker and a couple of well used texters… 🙂

This is, btw, the king, with his crown and cape…

Holding on

I could include some corny phrase about holding onto hope/life/blah in the face of lifes waves….but instead, here is a little green rock that I nicknamed the 'shoe horn'

this guys is related to the one in this post 😉

In memory of the Breitling Wing Walker Jane Wicker who died in June this year

Posted on by

Even the mildest aircraft incident could result in death for a wing walker, let alone any type of crash.

These women make it look easy, but very few spectators appreciate the danger they put themselves in every flight, two hats off to ya ladies.

This image was taken early this year at Avalon Airshow.

Blending the sweet lines of the F22, this thing has more curves than Mariah Carey.

the hardest thing is deciding whether to shoot from the rear or the side 🙂 or even just smack front on.

I was searching for a monochrome image that I had in my head this morning, this was as close to it as i could get – what I really wanted was a super minimalist BW seascape, oh well will have to go out again, dang 😉
