    Title or Location: Sellicks cliffs, South Australia.
    Having lived at Port Willunga for almost 51 years, our glorious Fleurieu Peninsula coastline is ?at my doorstep?. The majestic Sellicks cliffs are amazing at any time and even more so when the setting sun is this far south-west and during what I call a ?big sky sunset?, where the clouds moving up Gulf St Vincent fan out in huge V shapes. I captured this image (RAW file) at 7.56pm in October 2024, with my Nikon D500/Nikkor 16-80mm f/2.8-4E ED VR combination, hand-held. My all manual settin

    Title or Location: Port Noarlunga Jetty
    I purchased a Nikon Z 28-400mm f4-8 lens, I took it down to Port Noarlunga on a windy, hazy and gloomy day to give it a try. I wanted to mainly try the focal range using 400mm to see how sharp it was. I was very impressed of how the shot turned out, didn't expect to even see the stairs at Port Noarlunga South.The only post editing I did was to dehaze a little in Lightroom. Looking forward to use this lens more over the summer.

    Title or Location: Photo was taken ar the Will Rogers tower in the cultural district of Fort Worth, TX.
    I wanted to shoot the lunar eclipse but at the same time incorporate some quintessential Fort Worth icons into the image for context. I knew I would need to use a very long telephoto to get a large moon but in doing so knew that the rest of the image would need to be some distance from me due to the tunnel vision of the telephoto. I used Photopills and The Photographer?s Ephemeris to plan the shot which was taken with Fuji X system mirrorless equipment.

    Using light and shade to capture the beauty in the harshness of urban industrial architecture. Rekindling a love of black and white photography, I took this photograph whilst on a Brighton Photography Group 'Urban Architecture in Black & White Photography' study event led by Tobias Slater-Hunt. Having spent a winter of dark clouds, rain and dull skies, it was an opportunity to make the most of the year's new beautiful March sunshine.

    I couldn?t sleep on Thursday March 13th, so I took out my camera and remembered there was a blood moon scheduled to appear tonight after midnight. I steeped outside, set up my tripod and camera. It was rather chilly so I grabbed a coat and stood on the patio waiting for the show to begin. Slowly the moon started to disappear. I waited patiently and photographed every phase in that 1.5 hours until the entire moon was covered and the amazing colors started to glow. Truly a beautiful capture as th
