Re: Full Moon, Sunshine Beach.

Almost an abstract image in disguise, reeeeeeeealy nice. Sunshine beach illuminated by a full moon, through a red filter; one assumes the exposure could almost be long enough to invite Mr and Mrs reciprocity to the party. :D The shadow detail in the foreground looks good on the screen, one wonders h...

I'm supposing that today may be the last day, if so, and once again, thanks for the ride.

Re: Lake Weyba, Evening Storm Advancing

I've been pushing myself to add when I can, health issues have made this a bit hard, but as you say, if there was nothing at all happening, then it would not even attract a skerik of interest.

Re: Lake Weyba, Evening Storm Advancing

Maris, how do you find a wedge shaped cloud and a wedge shaped stump in the same scene? Answer: fabulous lake Weyba, that is where! :D That is quite the subtle wedge picture there Maris, I doff my hat to you. The line of bright sand between the water and the pushed up debris lights the bottom of the...

Re: Surry Hills Roofscape

Quite an interesting cityscape you have there Maris! It is busy, yet at the same time quite relaxing. The top half is full of interesting things, with the electronic sign being the most interesting; $10.00 indeed, hinting of the era that you exposed the film in. The bottom half is glorious, what wit...

Re: Park Shelter, Deloraine

Maris, the flare coming through all of the cracks is what gives this a bit of a kick; flare in this instance is good!!! Must be about 5 stops difference from the front, great detail on the timber. If the below the sink plumbing had been with galvanised pipes, instead of plastic, it probably could be...

Re: River Red Gums, Wilpena, South Australia

Maris, I believe it was a combination of cost and dwindling professional usage of colour negative material. The amateur market, which was huge compared to the professional market, even though it was basically all 35mm format, was very price sensitive. Fuji had older 3 layer colour negative material ...

Re: River Red Gums, Wilpena, South Australia

Very nice one there Maris. Your idea of using a longer focal length has worked for you, they have a presence, are isolated, yet you can still see where they are with regard to the direct area they are in. Yep, they drop limbs as though they were in a sporting competition. I have found my 250mm lens ...

Re: Lake Weyba, Past Imperfect

Very interesting, not quite an abstract image, but getting there. My first thought was that 15 years is a long time, then I remembered I have 6 sheets in a Grafmatic holder full of HP5+, which has been there pre-Covid. The white snow like, or star like bits, certainly is a plus for being different. ...
