Colour Contrast, Vertical goodness

The quaint colour contrast of the rocks caught my eye here, from electric green to the rustic red, I guess its little surprise given the rocks are washed daily from Botany Bay accumlating all kinds of bacteria and organisms , bot natural and man made 😉

traffic

One can never have too many images of city with the worst traffic, well i am sure I am being a bit over dramatic, however.

The day some politician actually builds a second airport in Sydney will be a day of celebration….

or they could just let the floating helipad go ahead 🙂

Imagine being able to land right here 😉

The B-sides

I really wish I had the time to properly go through all the images I take and process them…

This is place where I promised myself I would be back, sadly i have been within kilometres of the location on a handful of occasions and never gone back – next time 🙂

The tree, the shed, the silo and strange clouds

No shortage of grass in this paddock and i suspect, no shortage of tasty snakes either.

Technically, a tricky image to capture, the sun had already passed over the clouds and hence the dynamic range of the scene is quite large, the image is captured by bracketing a number of shots and finally assembling them into a panorama format.

Welcome to the little pothole

Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House long exposure, like any landscape shot (and I use that loosely since this image could almost be a cityscape too) often getting the right dynamic range can be a challenge, even with newer, more sensitive sensors often you still need to employ additional techniques to achieve the desired dynamic range, especially when trying to replicate what your eyes saw on the day.

The bigstopper adds another level of complexity to it, these tend to add quite a bit of vignetting, (for my lens anyway) so one must also combat this issue also.

The many shades of Tamarama

I am finding that my Seascape sessions are no longer complete without some kind of x-tych. Often images that are not strong enough to hold themselves up really shine in concert with others.

Thats making the best of mediocre images for ya 🙂

View large, if at all.

Thanks to +Suren J and +Rodney Campbell for the company.

The world underneath

Bradley's Head Marine Nav-Aid

What I love about sunrise is that you are never gonna know were the colour is gonna turn up (if at all) and when it does, all you can do is just make do with what angle, POV, or feature you can. I would have loved to be in another position to take more advantage of the sweet colours, but alas, this sliver of Sydney Harbour has to suffice.

Bradleys Head and the Navigation tower – probably one of the most photographic marine nav aids in sydney too :)

nothing like a sunday morning sunrise in Sydney, some reno's happening at Bradleys head but you can still access the foreshore and amphitheater.

Not a bad pano considering I had just rolled down the hill with a four year old….probably rolled in multiple dog craps on the way down

Sydney Park – the biggest dog park in the inner west and if i see some not picking up their dogs crap I will punch them in the throat.
