Gibson' Steps, Great Ocean Road, Australia

 


Yes, this place gets so many clicks by tourists, including me!

Funnily I did not use a tripod. Nor any filters. Just a simple click.

Melville Rocks, Loddon Valley, Greater Bendigo, Australia

 


Earthy rugged landscape used to be something I got obsessed for a while. Since I live close to the arid part of the state.

This is a good location for photographing milky way at night. I just dont have the guts doing so.

Sierra Nevada Rocks, Mornington Peninsula, Australia

 


Weather is getting quite cold. -2 degree Celsius almost every night. Walking in the ankle deep sea water on the beach rocks is really designed for iron man or iron woman.

Normally one would come up a poem for this image. I just like to ponder on a view like this. No words.

The classic view of Sydney Harbour Bridge

 


For a conference trip to Sydney, one has to take a souvenir shot back home. Pity there was no shiny light up projections on the evening.

The intense blue is particularly nice in Winter 

Not good for my wet feet


p.s. The spam filter on blogspot is a nightmare. I cannot even comment on other blogs anymore. I even struggle to get inside this blogspot. This reminds why I left Blogspot 5 years ago. PTSD!

The graduation of light and layers of colour are what I really like about the area

Well this area stinks. A lot of sewage and a lot of faeces lying around.

Pink Cliffs, Heathcote

 


This toughness in outback desert reflects the spirit of the regional Australia. I love the look of Pink Cliff in Heathcote where it does not take me long to drive to get to it!

Warburton Creek

 


A bit Zen, right?

Love the tone in this place. In summer, this spot would be filled with fierce mosquitoes everywhere.

Lake Tyrrell with another look

 


This lake is like a woman with menopause. There is such much volatility in its mood variation. She can be charming or cruel.

This place is deserty looking. So dry and arid that it is almost iconic for toughness to live in the outback.

Despite it is so freezing up there, the diffuse light and uniform colour tone allows proper long exposure on the water.

Seaford Pier Sunset

 






This spot is revered by many photographers in Melbourne - short travel and ease to set up the gear for long exposure under the bridge

Laowa 9mm f5.6 is a lens that does not have a good flare control. However, it is still an exceptional lens. Also a bit of glare makes the image real lol

Sony A7RIV allows me so much pixel to play with. Good dynamic range helps here.

Sea Cave at Mornington Peninsula, Australia

 


Three years later, I realise I had something good going in blogspot. Though I had started my ventures in zenfolio and instagram, blogspot platform has its own advantages. I think I cannot put all eggs in one basket as all my previous successful blogs on here either get bot attacked or domain hijacked. So this is just a space that I post whatever I want from my amateur career in photography 


This sea cave is among the thousands on back beach of Mornington Peninsula.
