A series of photographs from Remarkable Caves, Tasmania.

‘Golden hour’ light hitting Arthur River, Tasmania on sunset.

It was cold tonight. I arrived much too early so setup and waited around playing Scrabble on the iPhone (best time killer). In case you’re wondering, this is how the scene looked before the sunset begun. The long exposure (10 minutes) smoothed the water whilst capturing the blur of moving clouds. It could have been photographed in a shorter exposure but I like to push for longer as it usually smoothens the water more.

Wild weather on the Tasmanian West Coast.

Passing through Midway Point recently, I noticed a jetty that I photographed last April had been pulled down. As I’m always on the look out for old jetties to photograph, I came back a few days later on a wet evening. Standing ankle deep in water this is a 5 minute exposure at f.10.

Beautiful golden light hitting Mt Wellington on sunset.

The same location as one of my favourite pictures (link). Instead this time shot with a 10 minute exposure. As usual, B+W and Cokin neutral density filters were used to get the longer exposure.
