Walking around a rainforest – Maits Rest
As I’ve said a few times now last week I went to Port Campbell with some old and new friends from the USA. We did all the usual things of looking at the coast and […]
Silent Sunday – Looking back at flowers from Alowyn Gardens
I’ve been busy experimenting with some stuff, but it isn’t ready to share with you yet, so I need some more time. I also have the photos I took along the coast to process, so […]
Bridges that you can find around Melbourne
It is back to the dentist today. Hopefully, all will go well. I’ve been down along the Great Ocean Road this week as well, but since I got home it has been non-stop. Before the […]
Monochrome Madness – Along the coast
I’ve just arrived home from my trip along the Great Ocean Road with an old friend and some new ones. It is always busy when you get home so I thought for this week’s Monochrome […]
Video with some bits and pieces from the Northern Territory.
Another quick video today. When this is published I will be down on the coast. Hopefully, I will be taking lots of great photos along the Great Ocean Road. When I was in the Northern […]
Silent Sunday – Colour Vs Infrared
When I posted the infrared photos the other day of Tasmania I was asked by Matt which was better for Tassie. So here are some colour shots and infrared photos. I’ve chosen at this stage […]
An old Up for Discussion Post – Why I blog
Today I am bringing back an older post that was first done in 2015 and has been updated. The dentist this week hasn’t been good and I’ve spent the last few days in a lot […]
Monochrome Madness – Tasmania in infrared
Quick post today. I had a visit to the dentist and had some work done so now I’m in pain. So I won’t go on too much, thank goodness I had already done these photos. […]
Antiquing with ON1 Photo Raw 2023 – macro flowers
I was trying to work out what to do today for some editing and then I thought why don’t I just put one of my macro photos into ON1 Photo Raw 2023 and see what happens. […]
Silent Sunday – More of the macro from 2014
Also, some other macro that isn’t flowers. Happy Sunday.
Is macro photography the direction I should head in?
I first fell in love with macro photography back in 1997, I think it was. I had joined a photography club where some people showed macro photos of flowers; it was instant love. Unfortunately, I […]
Monochrome Madness – A crooked way out
Do you remember the photo I showed you of Dragon’s Head last week? Well, today’s image is from the same day. It was taken much later in the day and was one of the last […]
Using ON1 Photo Raw to fake a long exposure
Last week on Monday’s post I showed you how to make a dust storm using ON1 Photo Raw 2023 and this week I thought we could use some of the things from that to fake […]
Silent Sunday – Clouds over the city in colour
In Monochrome Madness a week or so back I showed you a photo of some incredible clouds over the city. I said I would show you some others and here they are. If you want […]
Using a manual again – Lensbaby Velvet 56
I have talked about the Velvet 56 from Lensbaby before and for macro, it is one of my favourite lenses. You can achieve a lot with it, but at the same time, you also have […]
Monochrome Madness – Capturing Dragons
This is another one from the archives. It was taken in 2015 down at Rosebud at a place that the locals call Dragon’s Head. It really does look like a dragon’s head, don’t you think? […]
Dust Storm coming – Using ON1 Photo Raw with textures
It has been a while since I did a video showing some processing and I decided it was time to do one. This is not something I just discovered and have done other images in […]
Extension tubes vs no extension tubes
I know I did a post about extension tubes once before, and I think I told you that I was going to try and get more to see how they would work. Well, I got […]
Monochrome Madness – Clouds over the city
It is no secret that I have a massive archive of images and I don’t see any reason why I shouldn’t dip into them when I need a photo for something. This is what I […]
