Melbourne Night at Birrarung Marr

 

Just too many people in the city. After that long gig 2 nights ago, I am binge watching Lord of the Rings on Netflix instead. Such a tragic story to watch.

Mungo National Park Desert sky for Skywatch Friday

 

The shot was taken using a Voigtlander 12mm f2.8. It was a tiring trip to access the location. I regret taking this lens only to a night shoot. The colour is not the same as Sony FE 14mm f1.8

Firelight Food truck Signs for Sign2

 

The evening was great for night urban vibe. I was using 50mm f1.2 for the sake of it. How fun!

Pinnacles Milkyway Bow for Water H2O Thursday

 

This was what Joel and I were up to last weekend. New moon. Zero cloud for 5 seconds though. It was after a hike elsewhere on Phillip Island. Then we had fish n chips before coming up here for a milkyway bow.

Light pollution is seen on the right. Thanks for the urban sprawl into this once peaceful island.

Milkyway Reflection at Lake Tyrrell for Water H2O Thursday

 

I visited Lake Tyrrell last night. Solo until midnight. I was lucky to spot the reflection view of Milkyway.

Lake Boga Milkyway for Thursday Water H2O event

 

This was taken last night. The weather turned good on a new moon night. So I took the camera to the lake side for a snap. Damn, it was so cold -2 degrees Celsius.

Melbourne Lightscape for Sunday Best

 

This is the royal botanic garden. It costs 55 bucks for all time entry. No refund possible. Joel and I came here ready to shoot on Thursday night. This lake in the garden is usually quite boring for me. Not that night.

Since Christmas last year, this sign is becoming a permanent fixture in Rosalind Park. Whenever there is new festival in town, light projection changes.

I was getting back to my car after a dinner in town. There was no queue in this light up event in local park. So I decided to take a stroll.

Surfer's paradise urban sunset for Sunday Best

 

On this night, I took night shots in Gold Coast and Brisbane. Joel and I went back to hotel after 2 am. That led to a late riser next morning ready for an adventure to Lamington national park.
