Dragonfly

On one of the plants in my front garden on a sunny spring afternoon. Lightroom preset – Turquoise and Red. Shot with my Panasonic Lumix FZ1000.

Photo of the Week 42

One from the vault. Taken in 2015 in Breenhold Gardens, Mt Wilson, NSW. A “photoshopped” image using the iPad app Color Splash.

Taken with my Panasonic FZ250. I’ve always liked this shot.

Photo of the week 41

Another from the series of Native flowers I took a few weeks ago. This one a white grevillia. Taken with my FZ1000 and processed with Lightroom. This image is included in my 2020 calendar.

Beach Fishing

I was going through my old photos looking for images for my Snapshots from Wollongong Series when I came across this one from Woonona Beach. It was taken in 2012 when I first began my photographic journey. It would have been taken with a Panasonic FZ100. Perhaps a tad overprocessed for my liking now, I think it is still a strong composition.

Photo of the Week 39

This week I have been messing with native flowers again in preparation for making a 2020 Wall calendar.

This is a white callistemon. Taken with my Panasonic FZ1000 and processed with Nik Software in Lightroom.

Photo of the Week 37

Long shadows of a past industry

This rather bleak image was taken in Port Kembla. It was late afternoon and the shadows caught my fancy.

Taken with my Panasonic FZ1000 and processed with a Lightroom preset.

Moine House.

I have been editing my 6000 odd photos taken in Scotland. Here I have been fiddling with some water colour type apps.

Moine House is near Tongue, Sutherland. Unknown to me at the time, the internal walls have some interesting grafitti. You would need to go around to the other side of the building to see it.

Photo of the Week 29

Another view out the window shot. This one from Bettyhill, Scotland. I only stopped because I loved the name of the town.

Photo of the Week 28

You can’t go to the Scottish Highlands and Islands without getting a photo of some Highland Cows. Correctly pronounced as heelund coos. These ones are content in Mull. I was lucky enough to come across these lovely girls when the farmer was checking on them. He invited me into the paddock, so I was able to get nice and close.
