How I love autumn.

This shot was inspired by Siebe Warmoeskerken who makes wonderful use of the 50mm 1.4 lens.  A stunning gallery that is worth browsing.

I could write a really cliché title and description but I hate it when people dribble.

I can’t believe the year is almost over.. Here are some of my favourite photos from 2008

To start is two photographs from an abandoned mental hospital with the Canon 10-22. These were taken at the beginning of the year which feels ages ago.

Another final shot with my Canon 50 1.8 (nifty fifty) before it broke, argh. Captured in Sandy Bay, Tasmania along a busy stretch of road during a quick break at uni. I really love playing with auto focus points (Click for the confused) with the nifty fifty as I use it somewhat differently to if I was shooting landscacpe.

Flower phase over for a while haha back to nature photography

Pink Flowers 2 – Depth of Field

Taken on a quick break during lectures at uni today in Sandy Bay, Tasmania. I noticed these flowers as I was travelling home yesterday from uni and perhaps it may be just me but they reminded me of Japan in some ways with the beautiful colours they have in different seasons.

A little dissapointed that I dropped my camera just a tiny bit and the Canon 50 1.8 now has focus issues. Fourtunately it’s a cheap lens to replace but still bit of a downer argh fun lens too! I recomend it for everyones kit.
