Re: Lake Weyba, Tree Window.

Relaxing picture, I think it may work well on a wall.

Freestyle Private Reserve, any idea who manufactured it?

Country Estate, Inverell

Been on a bit of a trip. House on a hill on the outskirts of Inverell NSW. Nice sunny day, but really cool unless you were in the sunlight. Around 600m above sea level according to my GPS, which explains a bit of the cool feeling. Plus it was in July. :shock: Shen Hao HZX45-IIA Ilford FP4+ 4x5"...

Re: Lang Lang Station Points Lever

Thanks Maris. I hadn't thought of the Pillar of Power being the future and this being the past, but you are right, it is such. Yes the 250 is getting a workout whenever I wish to isolate things slightly, it is really quite good at that. I would have liked to have a 300, but there is a practical limi...

Lang Lang Station Points Lever

The trains have long gone from Lang Lang, as have General Motors Holdens from GM's test track. Nonetheless, I was visiting the area and decided to have lunch and chanced upon the now disused station, really only the platform; which the points lever is on, and the two sets of tracks adjacent to the p...

Maris, a really good one.

Meanwhile the stock are grazing the lower parts of the land, as well as being in the water; presumably for a deep drink. :mrgreen:

Hot day?

Re: Dracaena, Rainy Day

Aha, quite detailed reciprocity details there Maris. Kodak have at times surprised me with many films and their longer than one second measured exposure versus required exposure requirements. Ektar 25 professional was relatively unique, as no reciprocity adjustments were needed until 10 seconds meas...

Re: Dracaena, Rainy Day

Pretty cool effort there Maris, what with maximum bellows extension and what looks like not really bright light that possibly put you into reciprocity territory. The water droplets really make this and the lack of wind allowed you to get sharp edges on the droplets and thereby better definition of t...

Re: Clifftop Path, Alexandria Bay.

Quite the adventurist there Maris. With a 90mm lens, you are quite close to the action, that sea spray is so fierce it is easily seen in B&W, which often isn't the case. The tree roots in the foreground having that dappled light falling on them, makes this a better overall picture. Nice to have ...

Re: Molesworth Church and Flock

Being a Church, I didn't expect to see someone with a crook... :D I was intrigued with your mention of 1869, I'm wasn't so sure. To double check I found that the new Molesworth Anglican church opened in 1899 and found a couple of references here and there to that effect. Maybe the old church disappe...

Re: Pillar of Power

Thanks Maris, I think in time these will be everywhere and we won't even notice them. The 250mm was selected to give that out of focus rendering, enhanced by exposing wide open. I at first moved real close, but it didn't look right, pulling back gave a better view; at least I think it gave a better ...
