On The Way To Haunted Bay
By Alex Barnes-Keoghan.
This creek is just past a place known as French’s Farm. I was riding to Haunted Bay, when – as I was crossing the bridge – it stuck out as a perfect photo opportunity.
Lighthouse 3
By Chris Hens.
Whilst on holidays in The Netherlands I photographed the Texel lighthouse. For this picture I put the camera on a tripod and used a 5 minute exposure to capture trails from the headlights of the few cars travelling to and from the lighthouse.
Lone Paddler
By Mark Dafey.
I arrived at my hotel late at night – too late to see the view outside my window – and resolved to get up early, knowing the sun would rise from behind the mountain across the lake. The view over Umiam Lake in Meghalaya, India, at dawn was better than I’d anticipated. Fishermen were out in canoes that they’d paddle slowly across the water.
Hobart start
By Robert Baker. The photograph was taken from the deck of a spectator boat off Bondi as the fleet headed south after the start of a Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race.
Life’s mosaic
By Mark Dafey. Jerusalem was one of the last places I wanted to visit after seven years living in the Middle East. I wanted to explore and stay in its Old City – a goldmine for photographers. This is the Dome of the Rock on Temple Mount, just outside the Old city walls. It is one of the Muslim religion’s most holy sites and can be seen with Judaism and Christianity’s holiest sites in the same day.
Approaching storm
By Russell Curr. Taken at Hverir geo thermal area as a significant storm approached; the roaring steam vent seemed to be heralding the storm.
Phoenix Roll
One of a sequence of a V8 Jetboat (Phoenix), a little out of control during a race meeting at Cabarita in Northern NSW. The boat did a complete roll and landed right way up back in the water and continued on its way.
Photo Challenge: The decisive movement
To undertake our Decisive Movement challenge, photographers had to ensure their shutter speed was a 1/60th of a second or slower – and that some aspect of their subject was in motion.
Burn
By Daniel Spellman. I’d always hated still life photography of flowers. It’s very subtle, peaceful, and contemplative work. Those are all the things I hate. So I decided to add some spark (literally) and have been experimenting with dripping some kerosene onto the flowers and setting them alight.
I always look forward to zooming in on the pictures afterwards to see what has happened. It’s a great example of how the camera can sometimes capture more than our eyes can.
