On Sunday a small group of photographers went to visit Serendip Sanctuary which is a 227 ha protected area for birds and animals. I’d not heard of it before but am so glad I visited. Such a beautiful place and the weather was lovely for our visit. We are all keen bird photographers so this…
While at Ricketts Point on Saturday I noticed a number of birds perched on rocks out beyond the rock pools. One of the other photographers headed out that way, his focus was on other things rather than the birds. They all took off into the air and headed in my direction, which was really nice…
Have you heard of Meetup? A great site that is an avenue for organising tons of meetups between people with similar interests. I belong to four different photography meetup groups, two of which I am co-organiser for. On Saturday just gone the other co-organiser planned a photography meet up to take place at Ricketts Point,…
If you run a business are you planning to produce a calendar for your clients and colleagues? I’ve received an order from a local mechanics shop for 100 calendars to give to his clients and staff. He’s picked out images from my Dandenong Ranges Calendar Collection. If you’d like to do the same, please get…
So my last post talked about a family of Cormorants. Well, it seems, they were two different types of cormorants. The Little Black Cormorant below and, at the bottom, the Great Cormorant. There is definitely a difference in size when you see them together, but not a massive difference. They enjoyed being together. This morning…
I’ve been building up a Gallery of the bird life I find in a couple of parks not far from my home. Birdsland Reserve, funnily enough, not named for its inhabitants, but rather for the family that used to own the land, by the name of ‘Bird’, and secondly Lysterfield Park. You’ll find the two…
we ventured upon a fashion parade in the city square. It was for the Lord Mayor’s Student Welcome. Naturally we all stopped to try our hands at model photography.
While on the photowalk a few weeks ago we wandered along lanes, inside malls and explored the architecture, the people, the atmosphere. Here are some of the architectural views I took.
Been a busy month this month and while I’ve been taking photos I haven’t always had time to go through them and process them all. Hoping to catch up on that this weekend. In the meantime, thought you might like to see a shot I took on a photowalk in Melbourne earlier in the month….
I was wandering around my neighbour’s yard and noticed a bird flitting around inside her hot house. It has the door permanently open these days so the bird wasn’t trapped, but just was inside. When I got closer I could see it was a bird I’d not captured with my camera before and I was…
Regular visitors at Birdsland Reserve include dogs and their owners. Quite a variety of dogs and most are very happy looking and obviously love their time at the park. I’m tempted to do a study of the dogs there 🙂 Here are a small selection of them. And this one was taken in much warmer…
It’s been colder, wet and windy, and I don’t get out to walk every day. I run a full time business and sometimes I have to go to morning meetings, or have a client visit. And if I don’t get out to walk in the morning it’s highly unlikely I’ll find time later in the…
