I was hoping to give the 600 a try out but we had a distinct lack of birds although i did manage to capture a "papa smurf" ...


on the walk along the water front we passed a golden orb spider ...


on the edge of the mangroves we passed this colourful plant ...


We moved on to Boondall and walked across the flood plain past these seed heads ...


unfortunately there was little to see from the bird hide ...


This bloke was well set up for fishing ...


The bright pink of this plant really stood out in the sea of green grass ...


After our magnificent BBQ we headed down to a small waterhole for some night pics and since i didn't have a decent flash i will let the others show the better shots but these may not have been captured by the others ...
A floating spider...


and rel capturing a dragonfly ...

Nice ones Shane. I like the bird hide shot

the fisheye treatment of the bird hide works well

I went to try the local hide at the local wetlands. only seemed useful at first light in my case.
even late in the day when the waterfowl were feeding, the setting sun spoiled it.

nice capture of the colourful plant too.

The bird hide and the insect on the water are tops. Reallu good.

Shane,

A good mix of shots overall and I'm with the other guys - bird hide is a standout.

Cheers

Michael

nicely done... the fisheye is great.

cheers

Shane,

Pity the 600 didn't get a run, but really like the other shots. The flower and the seed head are great, plus the spider on the water.

Hi Shane - was a pleasure to finally meet you, and put a name to a face (and to a monster truck ) Damian didn't even realise you took the fisheye shot - wicked !! My absolute favourite is the mistletoe shot - the gorgeous luminous orange flower - beautiful !!!!!

Papa smurf looks shitty doesn't he ???? LOL

Hugs, and looking forward to meeting you again
Rel

thanks rel, you certainly added a lot of fun to the meet ... see ya on the next one
