Surprisingly I have a few “extra” shots from this month – despite feeling like I didn’t manage to get out much! A trip to Berry Springs, Holmes Jungle Nature Park (in Darwin’s suburbs) and a few sunrise jaunts meant I could get my photo-fix in, a little!
I have been meaning to announce this for a while – but time kept getting away from me, and all of a sudden it’s nearly time…. after ten months in the making! My first Coffee Table Book is due to be released next week!!
Professional landscape photographer’s always talk about the “light” in their photos. For me, I agree. To achieve an exceptional landscape photograph, you need to be able to use the light – and wait for the “right” light.
Although I post daily to Facebook, my preferred “social network” site is Flickr. Flickr.com is all about photography, and photographers sharing their photos.

I’ve just bought myself a Canon 1.4x Extender for my 300mm F4L lens, and I thought a trip to Fogg Dam would be the perfect place to test it out – great bird life, lilies, and bugs galore.
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…
The biggest mistakes made by beginners starting out in landscape photography, are in composition. In my opinion, it is one of the most important things to get right “in camera”. Composition (aside from a little cropping) cannot be fixed in post processing. Nothing you do on the computer is going to change how you arranged…
There are some awesome places in Darwin to photograph our landscape and wildlife – unfortunately quite a lot of time is required to check them all out and be able to do our varied and vast landscape justice!
