Killen Waterfall for Treasure Tuesday

 

I did not bring my tripod to Northern Rivers NSW.

I placed the camera on a rugged rock shooting this view

Not bad

Grampians Stevenson Falls for Water H2O Thursday

 

This was taken a long time ago. Surprising my style of water photography has changed over the years.

Devil's Bowl Waterfall at Arthur Pass in New Zealand for Water H2O Thursday

 

This was taken using a telephoto lens from a distance. Very strong UV there so the colour adjustment is rather tricky.

It has been rather difficult to get back to work immediately after the trip. My body is sore everywhere as well. Thanks for the work out in NZ. 

Golden Waterfall Taiwan for Water H2O Thursday

 

This waterfall was adjacent to a highway. Not exactly hard to take a snap.

Wufengqi Waterfall (五峰旗瀑布262, Yilan County, Jiaoxi Township) - first stage for Treasure Tuesday

 

I arrive this place in the rain. Really muddy to walk the trails. So I did not continue hiking to stage 2-4 of the waterfalls. I did this without a tripod. Steady hand for 1.7 seconds.

Trentham Falls, Macedon, Victoria for Water H2O Thursday

 

Busy for the past few days. A lot of driving and dealing with nasty people at various work places.

This waterfall is a beauty.

Waterfall Minoo for Sunday Best

 

From one of many trips to Japan in the past, this waterfall is most poetic. It feels like a waterfall in high mountains of China. The perfection location for photography.

Pentax K10D - surprising what a small sensor and old tech can create a shot like this. 

The double whammy - football final and school holidays render Melbourne impossible to commute. I tried the candid photography in Melbourne CBD yesterday which was quite a shocker. Carp parking fee tripled on the public holidays. Traffic was so congested. There were crowds everywhere wearing Collingwood or Brisbane T shirts. I learnt the lesson to stay indoor even though there was Moon Cake Festival happening today.

McKenzie Falls in Grampians for Treasure Tuesday

 

From one of the hiking trips with Joel in the past. This area is now always packed with tourists. White supremist group also frequent this area a lot. I haven't returned since pandemic. The area tends to cause a glare issue to any wide angle lens. The dynamic range requirement is very high for this frame which is what everyone wants to take a snap on. I will need to bring the new equipment to this place again.

Trentham Falls for Sunday Best

 

This is a waterfall easy to get to. Easy to snap this from the viewing platform. Hard to access to the base of the waterfall though. The tracks going to the base of the waterfall has been shut since 2012. Still plenty of people trespassed the barrier to do so.

Amphitheatre Falls, Noojee for Randomosity

 

Amphitheatre Falls at Noojee

Love the vibe and the fun treking around the region. Now sunny weather for the rest of the week. Cant wait to go to Pinnacles again. More photo therapy. 

Joel always took the best spot blocking my camera view!

Toorongo Falls, Noojee for Treasure Tuesday

 

The treasure is the steep climb along the track up to the falls. The woods, lack of mosquitoes and constant sounds of water flow are just so pleasant for my whole day on the weekend. 

This is a frame in a portrait orientation that strikes differently to all the ones on the Instagram. I used to frequent this location in the university days. A lot of memories.

Hopetoun Waterfalls at Great Ocean Road for Randomosity

 

I used to frequent this location a lot. This was taken before the time a log fell in front of the falls. A co-worker asked for a photo like this, so I found from my large collection of photos. 

It is probably time to go back.

Serenity Waterfall, Sunshine Coast for Sunday Best

 

Serenity falls is quite elegant on the way to Noosa. There are so many Vloggers around the area making it so hard to photograph this fall. 

I caught up with my buddy Joel for a trial of best state meat pie in Victoria. There is a whole scotch egg inside the pie. Quite impressed.

Corra Flynn Cascade Waterfall, Marysville

 

A really nice hidden waterfall, still present after Black Saturday bushfire.  Love the anions emitted by the forest at the same time.

Erskine waterfalls, Lorne, Victoria

 

Erskine waterfalls is very popular along Great Ocean Road. I used to frequent this location in university days once a month. There is a large Spanish population residing in this town. Local Paella is very nice which is only cooked up every Sunday evening.

Old Chinese painting passed on in the family

 

I have a large family. Over 200 cousins that I could not count them all. It has been 3 years since I return to Taiwan. There were many wonderful items passed down the family tree. This was one of them. 

I am not sure if this was a real painting or a fake one. The dress code was from Manchurian period with a pig tail. Quite a scenic background too. There is a lot of western painting influence for this one.

MacKenzie Waterfalls, Grampians

 

This is one of the images that I can capture without a tourist in sight. It is kind of a miracle. 

The water is pristinely clean though.

Lal Lal waterfall, Ballarat

 

Tons of rains came down really hard in the past 2 days. Cyclone type of weather with rapid cycling of sunny moments and storms. 

Overcast weather is the best for waterfall long exposure. So here we go again at this waterfall with a funny pronunciation.

Iconic waterfall in Grampians National Park is becoming busier as time goes by. The place might turn into a shopping mall soon.
