On a day teaching Newbies how to take night photos we get blown out . i had to hold camera hard to the jetty rather than use the tripod.

I went in to get the shot of the Super moon next to the Freo Clock tower only to find the tower covered in scaffolding and sheeting. So plan B the top only.

Have you ever tried to catch the impossible. Cape Naturalist Light house has two Beams that are 10sec apart easier said than done. work in progress yet to be revisited but part of a great night.

Natures True Bonsai

A shot i was glad my wife was not about to see how steep and how small the area was to even get close . Biggest part was to get the tripod to stand it was so steep but the true Bonsai could not go unrecognised in the stars. do open large.

16' Bonsai

My street tree in the front of our house. started 14 years ago from the normal Chinese Elm the council planted in our area. while not perfect i tried to work with what i have. there is no other tree in the whole area that is the same always creates a lot of looks. the branches are being trained in a certain position hence the ropes to hold them. only can bring you this shot now with a 14mm lens because of the fence in the front of our yard.

Dark Night Bow

First ever try at a multi row shot of the Milky Way Bow, nothing auto about this all done on manual head. Enjoy this 1/5 the size of the original. Lighting was not perfect in this shot worth a look at the larger version. More learning gives this better version.
