Newtown Street Photography Photowalk
+Stephen Godfrey is hosting his annual photowalk in Newtown this Saturday. If you haven't tried your hand at Street Photography this is your chance to learn from a master. Also +Francis Gorrez, another master of the street, will be there to answer any questions you have. Just don't ask me as I make it up as I go along ;))) See you there.

Sorry guys I had to delete that last post. Something weird was happening to the images I posted. Very strange halos appearing which are not on the images I posted. Now to investigate.

More Than One From An Image
Another image from Elysian Rock Lookout 1.5hrs drive west of +Sydney in the Blue Mountains.
When you have your image in the bag and pleased with the results you should consider taking the same shot again but this time change the orientation of the camera from landscape to portrait or visa versa. Someone might be interested in your image for a magazine and require the vertical version of the scence.

Paradigm Shift #2 Event

Ode To Ansel
Elysian Rock Lookout is 1.5hrs drive west of +Sydney situated at Leura in the Blue Mountains. You can park opposite the Leuralla Toy & Railway Museum on Olympian Parade, then it's just a short 5min walk to the lookout.
A new series has begun to add to my Blue Mountains album. Over the following Tuesdays we will get a glimps of a few lookouts around the Blue Mountains region. Some in B&W and some in colour.
This shot was taken with my Olympus OMD EM5 with a Hitech 3stop grad filter and the help of my 52 to 77mm step-up ring.

The End
Image 8 and last for this series of +The University of Sydney adventure. What ever lies beyond this door will have to wait for my next visit. This time with permission and a guided tour. :))) +Sydney Uni was a unplanned unexpected suprise and I just wish I had my tripod to fire off a few 3 shot HDR exposures instead of tone mapping a single image. Oh well you just have to make do with the gear you have.
Next Tuesday is the start of a new series that adds to an existing album the Blue Mountains. A few locations I had been to before at the wrong time of day and a few new finds. I even gave my Olympus OMD EM5 a chance to show it's potential. Sorry Nikon D7000, I am seeing another camera but you are my first choice for seascapes. ;)

The Making Of "There Be Dragons"
I have 2 new sites up and running, www.sydneyseascapes.com which is, as you guessed it's mainly about +Sydney Seascapes. It does have a few beaches beyond Sydney and a blog which I hope to update often. The other is http://www.facebook.com/SydneySeascapes where I put up a lower resolution versions that you see here every Thursday. So if you want to follow me there just like the page. :)) Oh nearly forgot you can follow me on www.twitter.com/mykaljhall here I tweet photography tips, tricks, how to's and anything interesting i find on different photography websites.
This image was taken with my Olympus OMD-EM5 at 1/8sec handheld at Palm Beach, Sydney. It's not 100% tack sharp but I'm getting there. Just need a little more practice or less caffine. I do like the watermovement in the foreground though. While taking the... more »

There Be Dragons
I venture out to another "unvisited beach" on my list of 37 Sydney metropolitan beaches to photograph 2 weekends ago for a sunset shoot. This beach is about 70km from home so sunrises are out of the question, plus I prefer sunsets anyway.
The composition of this image is similar to the one I took at South Whale Beach, just a stones throw south of Palm Beach https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/107073852799630124249/albums/5672198152305612049/5774583534913250802
I couldn't help but repeat the image as the same vision and feelings were predominant in my mind. If you would like more info on how I go about selecting a beach to shoot just check out my new website's blog page at www.sydneyseascapes.com

Carpe Diem
Image 5, and my favourite, from our ( +Dianne Hall and I) +Sydney University adventure. To the left of the frame and in another room +The University of Sydney had an art exposition on display but the architecture of this building was more appealing and had to be captured. I just wish I had my tripod so I could capture the full dynamic range of light with several images (HDR). This was 1 image taken at 1/50sec, ISO1600, 11mm using my #Nikon #D7000 with a Tokina 11-16mm f2 at f5.6. Processed in LR4, Nik HDR PRO 2, +onOne Software Perfect Photo suite 6.
So the next question is "Did I walk the red carpet???" Well..... there were no signs warning against it or roped off areas...... ;))) Next Tuesday we see how far I ventured.
I have found recently you can have guided tours of most of the buildings at the campus. All you need to do is go the Syd... more »

Little Help From My Friends
My mate +Giuseppe Basile and +Ashlan Nathens have teamed up to give photographers and enthusiasts an avenue to sell and buy 2nd hand camera gear at http://www.cameratrade.com.au So if you have any unwanted equipment that is weighing your camera bag down why not turn it into CASH or if you're lucky pick up a bargain on a bigger bag :))

Hidden Tresure
I found this little gem hidden in with the photos taken on my second G+ meetup with +Giuseppe Basile at Ivo Rowe Pool, South Coogee way back in September 2011. The other photos in this album were my favourite for a long time as it was the first time I used my newly purchased B+W ND110 10 stop filter. That Giu lent me his for a few test shots in our first meetup and I fell in love with it straight away and just had to get one for myself. :)))

+Brian Matiash. Meet Google.
Ever since its launch, +Google+ has always been my favorite place to share imagery and to be inspired by the creativity of this community. It truly is a wondrous place for photographers to learn, grow, and network. That’s why I’m so excited to announce that I have joined the Google+ team as Community Manager for Google+ Photos.
You see, while photography is the thread that weaves through everything I’m made up of, it is the social aspect of sharing, teaching, and inspiring that fuels everything I do. My aim is to help show the world why Google+ and its community of photographers and photography lovers are some of the best on the Internet, throughout the world.
I now have the opportunity to inspire creativity and community within this global population of talented people who are looking to share a piece of themselves... one photo a... more »

Sydney University Quadrangle
This is the third image from my #SydneyUniversity album and in this we see the splash of purple of a Jacaranda tree that was planted in 1923. According to Wikipedia the life span of these trees, in sutible conditions will live for 100 years. Happy 90th birthday!!!!!! What a great location for a wedding and wedding photos.
Next week we get up close to the Ivy covered arched brick work and then the following week we get inside the building. :)))

Heaven At The End Of The Rainbow
I have never seen so many photographers in one place in all my life. Almost 400!!! I don't think the Beatles would have draw such a mob of paparazzi.(Yes i know, I'm showing my age) It goes to show how strong the #Sydney Photo Community really is. Ok there were lots of prizes given away, advertising in local papers, +Colby Brown and +Michael Sutton 's Facebook Communities, Twitter and Flickr groups too and not to forget the BEST community of all Google+. I know there is a "friendly" rivalry with the Melbourne Photo Community who, up until recently, held the world record for the number of participants in a photo walk.

The Ravine
Rule number 1 when visiting a new location. Scout the WHOLE area properly before deciding you know all the great spots to shoot. I didn't discover this spot until the day before +Dianne Hall and I left our vacation at #DelicateNobby Beach at #CresentHead on the Mid North Coast of NSW. We found it at midday when the tide was out and the foreground rocks were dry as a bone. I decided to come back that afternoon at high tide (lucky for me the tide would be in my favour). However the clouds were nowhere to be seen so that explains the lack of sky.

Sydney's Hogwarts
The University of Sydney is a public Australian university which is located in #Sydney , New South Wales. The main campus spreads across the suburbs of Camperdown and Darlington on the southwestern outskirts of the Sydney CBD. Founded in 1850, it is the oldest university in Australia and Oceania.
This is a building I drive by at least once a week and take it for granted. However that changed when +Dianne Hall and I were killing time after visiting our daughter at Glebe Markets. We ventured down to the uni parklands and then decided to take a closer look. There was a wedding being held in the courtyard within the building which explains all the cars spoiling my shot >.< Not daring to enter through the main entrance in fear of gate crashing the wedding we wondered around to the left of the building and found an art exhibition inside.

Vista From Meehni
This is the view from "Meehni", the first rock structure of the Three Sisters in the Blue Mountains in Katoomba. Just a 2hr drive west of #Sydney . Here we are looking west and I need to go back there to capture the view facing east. I just got distracted by the sun beams breaking through the clouds. During the Sydney Summer heatwaves this spot would be prefect to escape the heat with the breeze blowing through the valley. More trips need to be made with +Dianne Hall to explore this wilderness more. Maybe even a camping excuresion!!!!!
Next Tuesday is the start of a new album of a building in Sydney that was founded in 1850.

It Pays To Have Backup.
This is the first image I have altered, other than colour stylisation. Unforturnatly the skies after the first day at #DelicateNobby were cloudless so I dropped this sky in for a more pleasing look. I used #ononesoftware 's Perfect Layers and with their perfect masking brush it was very easy. Even for a beginner like me. :)))

This is the final decent before you reach "Meehni", the first rock structure of the Three Sisters in the Blue Mountains in Katoomba. Just a 2hr drive west of #Sydney . +Dianne Hall and I have made this decent twice and both times we have passed people sitting on the steps in fear to venture any further due to their fear of heights. It's a shame as the vista from Meehni is worth the trip as we will see next Tuesday. :)))

A Relaxing Way To Start The Year
+Dianne Hall and I spent 4 days camping at Cresent Head, 446km north of #Sydney at the start of the year as Sydney swelted in 45 degree heat. This place was heaven and only a 5min walk from our camp site.

HDR ? no DRI ! Dynamic Range Increase ?!?
This is a technic that I love for shooting urban Landscape where the dynamic range is a challenge.
1. Shoot bracket photos as you would for HDR -2 0 + 2.
In Lightroom or Camera raw :
2. Retouch the normal exposed photo for the buildings.
3. Retouch the under exposed photo for sky.
4. Retouch the over exposed for the water (silky water)
5. Open all 3 raw files in one Photoshop files and blend them gently with mask and brush of 40 %
You will see a full demo on how to do this on my next podcast on monday !

The Three Sisters
The Three Sisters is the Blue Mountains’ most spectacular landmark. Located at Echo Point Katoomba, around 2.5 kilometres from the Great Western Highway and a 2hrs drive west of #Sydney This iconic visitor attraction is experienced by millions of people each year.
The Three Sisters is essentially an unusual rock formation representing three sisters who according to Aboriginal legend were turned to stone.

Each of the Three Sisters stand at 922, 918 & 906 metres tall, respectively.
The Aboriginal dream-time legend has it that three sisters, 'Meehni', '... more »

Tying Up Loose Ends
The last 2 images from my Life At Bondi series. There is so much to enjoy while at the iconic Bondi Beach from surfing, swimming in the ocean and the tidal pool, relaxing on the foreshore or exploring the rocks. No matter what you enjoy doing remember someone is always watching you. Be it a lifeguard, a friend, a loved one or even the local wildlife. Hopefully, the non aggressive wildlife.
My next post will be Tuesday and will feature another iconic area of the #Sydney region, the Blue Mountains.
