I love a good sunrise or sunset… This is an older shot, taken some time in October 2010. I came across it today while looking through some older photos and thought it might be worth posting. I’ve actually posted this one before today on other sites prior to carrying out any adjustments. I decided today [...]

week1
Welcome to the world. This is Josh, and in this shot he was 6 days old. He has very sharp fingernails and a tendency to scratch his face in his sleep, hence the marks on his nose and cheeks. The photo was shot in RAW, and aside from the addition of the watermark it’s completely [...]

Neopan
Here’s another film simulation. I was out to lunch today and noticed this arc of windows sweeping around gently into infinity. The shot has been cropped slightly. This was done for composition and also to remove the nearest window from the frame as there were structures and lights visible which didn’t really suit the rest [...]

Lemon Grass
I named this photo “Lemon Grass” after the filters that I used to get the warm sepia split tones. I used the Film Lab iPhone app once again here to simulate film and grain, and I quite like the shot even though (especially because) the grain is very coarse, which was obtained by adjusting the [...]

Coffee
It’s a Saturday ritual for my wife and our boys. We head on down to our local coffee shop and debrief the activities of the week over breakfast. I often pull out my iphone at some point and snap some photos of friends or family. On this particular day, I noticed the light and shadows [...]

Triple Rock
Another set of falls at Somersby, NSW Australia. The rock platform in this shot provides a solid foundation for the triple stack of stones that part the water. The water will always win over time though. Another couple of hundred thousand years is all it will take. Share and Enjoy:

Bark
I love this photo because of the incredible texture of the bark. The over-exposed background next to the darkness of inside of the tree-stump adds interesting contrasts – black against white – texture against flat tones. Share and Enjoy:

stairs
These stairs can be found along a bush walk in Ku-ring-gai national park in Sydney, NSW Australia. Originally shot in colour. Converted to B&W with Photoshop, cropped and heavily edited. It was necessary for me to use dodge and burn extensively in this version of the photo so that I could obtain the contrast I [...]

Sunrise
Captured this sunrise in Feb, 2011. The sun was rising as I was on my way past Hawkesbury river, NSW Australia. Canon EOS 400D, ISO 100, F/8 and 40mm focal length. Share and Enjoy:

Noise
Another Lorikeet shot. Shot in low light, f/5.6 at 300mm with ISO set at 1600. The ISO was set exceptionally high on this shot due to the low light, and the shot is quite noisy because of it – hence the title. There’s been a lot of post-editing carried out on this in an attempt [...]
