Summer Sunset

Over the summer holidays we spent a couple of nights up the Sunshine Coast. On one particular evening we were out with the kids playing at the beach and the sunset looked promising, so I grabbed my camera kit from the car and was fortunate that the skies turned into this ripper sunset!

Appleford

I have titled this image Appleford, as that is the field note I have documented for this image which I captured on Velvia 50 film in April 2021, on an autumnal colours photography roadtrip. I seem to remember the name Appleford was either engraved on the fence or on the letterbox near the fence. This tree lined driveway capture my eye due to the magnificent orange and red foliage.

Noosa National Park

Noosa National Park has to be one of the most beautiful places on this earth. If you have never been there, do yourself a favour and check it out one day. It is beautiful to walk through on a cloudless day when the sun is high in the sky. You get to see the most beautiful aqua waters amongst the bushland and beaches.

Kangaroo Love

This photo was taken at sunrise at Cape Hillsborough in July 2021. Cape Hillsborough is well known for the kangaroos that visit at sunrise and we were not disappointed this particular morning. We were fortunate to witness these kangaroos and a really nice sunrise this particular morning.

Gostwyck Chapel

I took this photo in Autumn 2021, during a brief 3 night trip down to the New England Region of New South Wales. This particular location is fantastic to photograph and I think this was the 3rd or 4th time I have been here. I find it somewhat bemusing that as a photographer, you may be granted some really nice conditions to shoot a particular scene at a particular time, but that's not the conditions you want! I can recall being at this location previously where there was some epic light through the trees onto the church, and all I wanted was there to be fog! This time there was heaps of fog, and all I wanted was some light to pop out!

P.S. I love that I shot this image at 6:17 as that is the ratio my panoramic film camera shoots in - 617!
