  • Beached…

    By using a tilt/shift lens I could control depth of field differently to with a conventional lens. Hardware: Canon EOS 5D Mark II, TS-E 24mm f/3.5L, tripod Exposure: ISO400, 1/50s @ f/3.5, +1EV Post: Reduced exposured, added vignette

  • Tradesman

    My son in 2003 showing Dad how to wield the tools. Although digital has come a long way, this D60 (not 60D) image has held up pretty well. Hardware: Canon EOS D60, Tokina 24-70mm f/2.8 Exposure: ISO400, 1/640s @ f/4, 47mm (eft. 75mm) Post: Not much.

    Shooting in a museum where flash is prohibited is tough, but modern DSLRs are actually pretty good at it.A fast fifty is the go. My EF 50mm f/1.4 is a great lens, but the depth of field is sooooo narrow. Hardware: EOS 1D MkIIN, EF 50mm f/1.4 Exposure: ISO400, 1/50s @ f/1.4, 50mm (65mm eft.)…

  • Christmas Bike

    All around Australia Toy Runs are happening, where motorcyclists gather and give presents to charity for redistribution to those in need. Some riders go all out. Hardware: Olympus EP-1, 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 Exposure: ISO100, 1/10s @ f/19, 14mm (28mm eq) Post: Nothing of note.

  • Mossy Bench

    One from the archives – probably shot with my Olympus C-1, my first digital camera, shot mid-2003. The EXIF data has gone missing. Made monochrome with Aperture 3.

  • Haunted?

  • The Taste of Summer

    The taste of summer. Using f/5 has given this image enough depth of field but still retained good background bokeh. Hardware: Canon EOS 1D MkIIN, EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS Exposure: ISO200, 1/500th @ f/5, -0.33EV, 160mm (Effective 196mm) Post: Crop, definition, sharpen.
