  1. Hmmm actually this is a pretty cool pic. Funny I was standing right next to you and got nothing like this. Must be time to get those filters lol.

  2. I guess this was taken with a long exposure.

  3. NIce colors Kirk. Did you taken enough images for a stitch as I like the colors with this single one.

  4. Thanks Guys
    Yeah Neal I did take a few shots for stitching
    Didnt really get any compositions I like but . Might post some thing a bit later . Was a bit hard using the 50mm at Mettams pool couldnt get far enough away for most shots so switched to the standard lens
    Yeah yesbuts was about a 6 second exposure I think
    Yeah I got a few shot of it before you said that Jamie , just noticed the horizon wasnt straight :)

  5. Was about to mention the horizon :D Nice one, colour balance a bit cold for my liking though. Try warming it up heaps and see what effect that gives it.

  6. Interesting colours in this one mate. Where and whats at Rossmoyne?
    Never even heard of that.

    Cheers

  7. Hi Flemming,

    I like that it was cold as it reflects the morning. I was standing right next to Kirk and it was freezing, raining and heaps of waves splashing onto the aread. :-)

  8. Hi Jamie,

    White balance is a totally artistic choice (there’s no right or wrong in my book) so go with whatever you like no worries! I just always end up warming it heaps and heaps, perhaps because I’m from the cold north :)

  9. Hi Flemmming,

    It certainly feels like the cold North at the moment. LOL. I had to scrap ice off my windscreen this morning!

  10. Its just god damn unworldly cold for Perth right now ….. Hope christians getting his warm rays up there.

  11. Nice Pic Kirk,
    Love the rich colours, and long exposure.

    Well Done.

  12. Another great shot Kirk. Very vivid dreamy sort of business going on in this one.

  13. I’m a nice tan brown over here fellas. But it is a different story up in the mountains!

  14. Dylan + Warm weather = Bastard!!!

  15. I freakin hate the cold.

  16. Dylan + Tan = Mass Sex Appeal

    Neal + Slightly Cold weather = Sookylala
    haha

  17. Nice shot, after getting to bed at 3am I thought it best not to get up in 2 hours and come and meet you guys. Perhaps another week.

  18. HI Neal,

    You know its cold when I stop wearing shorts. ;-)

    Jamie Paterson

  19. Just insane Jamie. I had thermal leggings on plus jeans …. Yeap total Sookylala in the cold I don’t mind admitting to … Give me heat and make it humid as well please.

  20. Nice composition and colours Kirk. The horizon looks slightly off but apart from that its A+.

  21. Hey Jamie
