Out the corner of my eye

As I went back up to the Hash House today (my granny flat) I spotted this little guy on a dandelion. Out came camera, flash+lightsphere and sync cord. Ahhh... set to manual of 1/500th @ f18 and let the i-ttl flash do the rest! Framing could have been better without clipping that bottom petal. Nikon's 85mm PC micro would have been cool to get the DOF plane to include more petals, but that's $1500 more than I've got. Anyone want to donate to Hash's photography fund?



Also here are a few that I took whilst at Girraween National Park (near Stanthorpe) last weekend. The inch ant I encountered was ferocious! Kept on jumping at the lens!

Yes still alive

Here, have some place holder photos to tide you over. Been a little flat out what with a friend's wedding, a trip back to Adelaide, portraiture work and not to mention a very photographically eventful 30th Birthday!

Tried to use the multiple exposure ability in the D200, though I think it would be just as easy to stack photos in PS afterwards. Had a lovely picnic with Therese on the lookout which was very crowded. I pushed the colours of the first one a bit much, and blew out highlights all over the shop. Ah well...



More photos SOOON!
