Well took this a while ago when I was bush walking with Jayne up in the hills.I remember the day like it was only yesterday as my legs are still sore, she nearly killed me.Well I guess it was worth it!It’s an oldie but still a goodie.

Haven’t had a chance to get out and do any landscapes for quite some time now, what i have been doing is kids birthday parties and the the trip to the zoo for Max’s 5Th birthday!Over the coming posts i will put up some animal shots starting off with this cool guy!I had to shoot through very dirty child finger and nose smudged glass to get this one.Turned out not too bad considering i think.Hope you like him…I do.

Thought I should post something as Jamie told me that I am being slack!Even though he is right I just have been so busy with every kid I know right now having a birthday party including my own.Well any way this was taken up at Hillary’s a couple of months back with some very unusual clouds around that night.I love these boat shots as I love the water and anything do do with boating!!

canvas-1

Have been playing around with some macros to make canvas prints for my house.Really liked this one so I thought I would show you guys to see what you think.I really like trying different stuff every now and again and I think this will look really cool as a big canvas on my wall.

twilght

Met up with Jamie last night for an evening shoot down at Cott beach.Well it so beautiful down there the weather was perfect.After shooting a few shots of the tea house we went around the corner and got this one.I was having a great time experimenting with long exposures and my new Lee filters…they rock,I love them.Can’t wait to see you shots Jamie they are going to be great!

swan-river-copy1

After spending an evening standing in the swan river getting attacked by a crab and the blow fish nibbling at my toes, I had a visit from these these guys!They turned out better than my landscape so I thought I would try a bit of a different editing style and put them up for you to see.

Went out to our farm the other weekend to ride the quads and have a bit of fun.Shot this down at the lake which is at the back of the property.This was a 6 image stitch that I really liked.Enjoy!

Another great year at the Red Bull Air race and the first one that i managed to actually get to!Shot this one from the foreshore in South Perth.The next image is for Jamie as he just loved this helicopter and kept saying all day “Hey guys look at that”.Had a great time and it was great to finally meet that little guy Jamie,  Xavier is real cute!!
