Enough is enough

Unfortunately my camera was destroyed in a yacht accident involving bilge water while I was on the Whitsundays and thus I have no camera with which to take photos with for the foreseeable future. There are also some other things which are going on at the moment which have made me decide to stop writing on this blog any more. I’ll still monitor any comments and provide help when and where it’s needed on any articles / HOWTO’s which I’ve written.

I’ve decided that I will be continuing blogging but just in a much more private manner where I can be honest with myself.

Thanks for reading

One of the many waterfalls in Litchfield – went swimming in the rock pool at the bottom of this one. Soooo relaxing!

This was taken in the Territory National Park just outside Darwin, NT. This is actually an HDR image (my first published on here).

Are you happy?

My new shirt design

Ok, so I want a new shirt, something smartish so I could wear it to work and decided that rather than just buy one off a shelf I wanted to do one myself… this is the result:

It reads “i > u” and in case you don’t “get it” – nevermind. That’s the beauty of it

Matthew Street Festival ‘09 – Day 2

Of all the photos I took this weekend, this has to be my favourite. I like the fact that the music and atmosphere of the moment moved these two hands into the air together for everyone to see.

New lens 18-200mm

rob — Sun, 30 Aug 2009 17:27:01 +0000

So I made it a week writing a post each day (yey me) so I decided I should buy myself a present as a means of congratulations (like I need an excuse) so I just picked up a brand new Tamron 18-200mm lens. It’s a beast! (see my last post which was one of the first shots I took with it)

Previously I just had the stock Canon 18-55mm as my primary wide angle lens. After getting this lens and being able to get such a range of focal length in one lens is just awesome! I’ll still be using my 70-300mm for certain shots / scenarios (wildlife etc), but this is my new primary lens from here on out. I’ve also been debating getting a Canon 50D but right now I can’t afford it, and I’m also going to wait until they bring out a **D with HD video as a feature. That’ll be a knock-out camera I would imagine.
