Welcome Anthony and thanks for posting here.

 

I haven't been to Cathedral Gorge. It is now on my hit list!

 

You've captured the scale of that 'boulder' really well with the people in front of the pool. 

Like the reflections.

 

Please keep posting!

A classic Australian bush scene Les!

The hut is very nicely framed by that tree!

Stuart,

 

nice when 'foreigners' show me parts of my country I've not seen (although I have flown low over Cape Leveque in a small plane)

 

Regards,

Mark

Driving from Coral Bay to Karratha, at Exmouth, I came across this bit of Aussie humour on the side of the road.

Mark, Cathedral Gorge amphitheatre is HUGE. During the "WET" the rock shute on the top left channels water straight into the pool. As the water pressure drops off it then runs back under the overhang and stains the surface. I didn't have a wide enough lens to get it all in with one shot. A 21 mm or even 17mm lens may be needed.

Great scene Dee, especially the backs of all the sheep

 

The square format works well with many of these. Do you frame for square format at the time you take the photo or fiddle with the format later?

Thanks Mark, glad you like it, it's been posted before but I've run out of 'new' material (not that any of my digital stuff is particularly old) and will just have to hit the road to get some more for this thread.

 

Square format?....I see it as uncropped 35mm...am I missing something?  (please explain, heh heh)

That's a threatening sky Dee. Looks like lightning on the way.

Another dramatic image from the High Plains Platypus!

 

cheers  Dave S

No - it was me.

 

I was looking at it on a computer at work which cropped the right side of the photo to a perfect square to format it within the page. Once I reduced the size of the content (control -). The photo was then revealed to me in it's entirety in it's glorious 35mm format!

That shows a high level of dedication to the Forum, we should all feel appropriately complimented, I certainly do!
