Those that got away… June 2013

Every month I want to start doing a blog post for the “unseen” photos I took that month.

I take photos at least five days a week. In wet season, I usually go out everyday, sometimes twice a day! Although I am not as “trigger happy” as I used to be, I still end up with a LOT of photos. Each sunset shoot I probably come back with between 15 and 30 shots. On a longer trip I can take hundreds of shots.

I only usually post one photo a day to social media – Facebook, Flickr and G+  – I pick my favourite shot from the day to process and then share online. A lot of photos become archived, and forgotten about, all because there was one I liked slightly better. So I have a lot of photos that never see the light of day!

Each month, I want to make the effort to post the “runners up” of my photo outings. Other shots that I liked, but weren’t the favourite of the day. These are shots not shared elsewhere, so if you have any thoughts/critiques/comments on any of the photos, please do leave a comment!

I don't do black and white too often, but this seemed to fit right :)

A very similar shot to another I took of Jim Jim Falls this visit. This one differs in it's wideness - this is four vertical shots stitched together to make the view of the gorge a bit wider.

This month has been very hectic with markets and making photos, but I am hoping to get out and around the area a little more over the next month or so!

Let me know what you think!

Lou 🙂
