Seascape — South Arm, Tasmania

2010.02.11

A culled image that I’ve come back to a few times. I’ve always looked at the photo and wished the cloud was in the mid­dle of the frame, not dis­ap­pear­ing out of it. What can you do?

Simple Landscape Photography Tips

These are just a few things that I take into account before going on a shoot. They aren’t rocket sci­ence I’ll admit and are actu­ally quite sim­ple but I hope they help a little.

Tutorial: Blending in Photoshop

2009.06.12

Just a tuto­r­ial (err very rushed..) on blend­ing images in Pho­to­shop. I occa­sion­ally use this in my work­flow as it’s a handy way of fix­ing over expo­sures or increas­ing dynamic range with­out resort­ing to hdr.

Cradle Mountain Stream

This was taken ear­lier at Cra­dle Moun­tain National Park dur­ing win­ter.  I know it sounds really corny but after days of rain this was just beau­ti­ful to walk through,  the smell from the sur­round­ing wet trees was amazing.

Recently I got some cal­en­dars printed through Red Bub­ble to give as a Christ­mas gift to close friends and fam­ily. The above pho­tographs really don’t do the cal­en­dars any jus­tice, I’m really impressed with the print qual­ity and pre­sen­ta­tion of the cal­en­dars for the rel­a­tively low price. If any­one is inter­ested in a cal­en­dar please see this link or per­haps you may want to get some done of your own shots, I couldn’t recomend them more.

Friendly Beaches, Tasmania

Shoot­ing with fel­low pho­tog­ra­pher Ron­nie Ling at Friendly Beaches, Tas­ma­nia ear­lier this year dur­ing win­ter. I love the East coast of Tas­ma­nia com­pared to more South­ern areas, the rocks are just stun­ning. Hope you enjoy.

Quiet Stream — Cradle Mountain, Tasmania

F.13 / 20 seconds

I’ve been mean­ing to sub­mit this one for some time since I pho­tographed it in July but kept for­get­ting. This was cap­tured at Cra­dle Moun­tain National Park on a short walk to a much larger fall. We arrived late after­noon at around 3pm so it was already start­ing to get quite dark being the mid­dle of win­ter which was a real shame, this place was stun­ning and I prob­a­bly could of spent hours here just mess­ing around get­ting my feet wet but were rushed a little.

Cradle Mountain Stream

2008.07.15

Another from Cra­dle Moun­tain, Tas­ma­nia. Those famil­iar of the national park may recog­nise the bridge as you enter the park and pass a water­fall. This is up a lit­tle look­ing back at the bridge behind the water­fall. I was almost tempted to fid­dle with black and white for this image as the sky really is quite dull but I’m attracted to the tones and tex­ture of the fore­ground rock which would oth­er­wise not be appre­ci­ated under a black and white conversion.

Udi at DIYPho​to​ga​phy​.net recently men­tioned my work on his pop­u­lar blog which I greatly appre­ci­ate :) It’s defi­nately a big thing for me know­ing my work is appre­ci­ated by oth­ers and is some­thing that inspires me to con­tinue shoot­ing.
