A shot between fish and chips :) Cityscapes with the 4 year old

Posted on by

The weather in Sydney has been amazing today , beautifully warm and perfect for the pool and picnics. The sky is still very hazy with local burnoffs and there was some nice colour in the sky tonight, although I did miss the best of it..

Welcome to the little pothole

Posted on by

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 Natural world meets the City

Posted on by

Sydney Skyline on a smoky sunday afternoon. The super low tide gives one great access to some slightly out of the ordinary shots of Sydney Harbour and the Sydney Opera house. 180 seconds for the water, taken from Mrs Macquarie's Chair.

Sydney Park Panorama – what I love about this view is you can see some many facets of the inner west from here. From the Alpha house in Newtown to the Redfern blocks to UNSW and of course the CBD skyline (just the way I like it, a long way away :) )

The many shades of Tamarama

Posted on by

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 :)

Posted on by

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.
