Woodman Point Jetty, busy with fisherman and Pelicans.
These two pelicans were hoping for a free feed, but unfortunately the fish weren’t coming to the party!

The sun sets over Geographe Bay.
For this shot I thought I’d try a different composition – too many of landscape my shots are in landscape orientation!

On the weekend I ventured down to the Swan River, and found a dozen Australian Pelicans. This guy had just leapt out of the water, beginning his search for some mid-morning breakfast.

The Australian Pelican is a fascinating bird, which claims to have the longest bill of any living bird.
Commonly having a wingspan of 2.3-2.6 metres, these birds glide through the air almost effortlessly.

The Fremantle skyline at night As viewed from the Collie St Car Park, looking North towards Fremantle Harbour:
From this viewpoint, you can see down Market St towards Fremantle Harbour and the unmistakeable cranes in Fremantle Port.
The large red building in the centre is the Newport Hotel.
The green illuminated building to the top left is the Fremantle GPO (post office).

I am constantly surprised by the beauty I see while riding my bike along the Swan River through South Perth and Kings Park!

A Big Stopper 10 stop ND filter (and tripod) was used to achieve a 57 second exposure.
The sun sets over Southbank in Melbourne.
I took this shot using my nifty fifty during Trey Ratcliff’s Melbourne Photowalk back in January.
The walk had over 200 people attend, which made it quite easy to put a few people in the frame for this shot.
Last night I attended the Williamstown City View photography walk by DJB Photography.
I had a great time meeting new people and experimenting with my camera’s manual mode.
Below are my favourite shots:
Thanks very much to Claire for showing us the sights of Williamstown!
Update 28/6/2013: The official photos from this walk have just been posted on the DJB Photography Blog, so be sure to check them out too!
I snapped this Sulphur-crested Cockatoo’s morning flight over Lake Mulwala in Yarrawonga on the weekend.
This shot was taken just after sunrise, when there were literally hundreds of cockatoos flying around and making lots of noise!
My lens was at full zoom (400mm) for this shot, and I also had to crop the photo a little.
Location: Lake Mulwala, Victoria, Australia
Last weekend I visited Yarrawonga, staying in a house that overlooked Lake Mulwala.
Throughout the weekend I experimented with my new Big Stopper filter, which allowed a 26 second exposure time to capture this shot during a morning sunrise.
Overall I’m very happy with the Big Stopper, which is a 10 stop ND filter.
Location: Lake Mulwala, Victoria, Australia
Last weekend we visited a family member’s sheep farm in Pyalong, Victoria.
It was a fun day full of food, children, sheep and photos. Here’s some of my favourites.
As always, any feedback (positive or negative) is welcome!
