From the persistent rain of yesterday evening to the reward of a lovely sky this evening

Golden hour photos at a local creek in Geelong. I was trying out back button focussing and it felt much easier to get sharper photos. Still relying on cropping to get closeness though, not sure if i need a new lens or higher MP camera . . . or both.

Sydney's Northern beaches - I didn't take my camera so these are taken with my phone.

That's some sky!

I’m afraid my phone barely does it justice. It really was stunning

The juxtaposition of the tomatoes with the toast is extremely imaginative, whilst the light reflecting off of the sausages is beautiful! Also, very clever use of the Rule of Thirds!

Just going through my 6x7 transparencies (slides) and scanning some of them. Here's one from 1983 when I was doing my photography degree. Taken from the Palace Pier looking out to the West Pier. Where have the years gone, oh and the West Pier

aaand another, this time from The Dead Sea near Ein Gedi, Israel. Think this was sometime in the 80's and is a 6x9 transparency (slide) Ive also photographed the Dead Sea more recently from the Jordanian side, but the salt deposits aren't as nice IMO

La Mer from Brighton was beautiful today. A great day for businesses, everywhere was mobbed.

Random question, anyone here got or used a Fuji x-h1? I have a Fuji x-t1 and x-t200 already but I want the benefit of IBIS which neither of those have. I have an old Pentax K5 which is a lovely camera but being a DSLR lacks the live viewfinder which I want for manual lenses. However the images it produces are really lovely and I found the IBIS fantastic. I love the fact that I can sling a larger lens on and not worry as much about shake. Cheers.

Went out in golden hour on halloween to find some birds, I found cockatoos, cormorants, crows and ducks (crows and ducks not featured here).

This photography lark is alright isn't it? Brilliant for mental health after a tricky day.

Saving up for a new camera now as my auto focus and dynamic range are shit, i keep missing out on good pics because I can't focus or speed up my shutter speed enough. - Any recommendations for a next step camera - I am currently looking at the Canon R7, R10 or RS.

I bought my first SLR in Sydney, just so I could go and take photos of cockatoos in the Blue Mountains!
