This is a photo from the other day from a walk near Macquarie Pass. Comments and suggestions welcome


Edit: I uploaded it to Flickr now so if it works you can stop hosting it any time you get around to it Alpha_7. Thanks

A lovely lovely shot there, unfortunately most people won't be able to view it easily as Pixspot doesn't play nicely with the forum anymore.
Do a quick search on the forum and you'll see the threads, but this is the main one.

I can host the shot temporarily if you like, as it's definitely worth sharing!

P.S. If you want me to remove it, let me know!

Thanks for that. I previewed it before I posted and it worked and it still works for me. Anyway thanks for fixing it up for me.

That's the trick, if you have view it already then you can see it but those flying blind to the thread, just get a little "Go to Pixspot.com" message.

a wonderful shot... I would love to see the same shot again perhaps with the lady on a rock closer to the foreground...

cheers

yeah probably should have thought about it more when I was taking the picture. My wife was just sitting there and just happend to be in the photo and I thought that it did not look bad so I told her not to move for a while. Also it was a 15 sec exposure so if she was any closer she would have looked blured. I will have to play around with it more next time

Just wondering if you go to UOW ? just your alias could be your email address there ? How did you find the walk up with your camera gear ? Did you travel light or take it all up there ? Last time I did the walk I only had my P&S camera

[dm52]

Yeah I do go to uow and yes that is just my email adress. It is just one less thing to remember so I use it for user names for lots of stuff. I did carry all my camera gear in (just body, two extra lenses, flash, and a p+s in the bag and a tripod straped to the bottom). I just have a backpack camera bag and so it is okay to carry. Also have a fairly light tripod that I take with me.

Cool, Former UOW student myself, went I walked up there with my point and shoot it was just after heavy rain so found the going quiet treacherous also did a little rock climbing to get to harder to reach places. I might be a little more reserved with my new gear (If you don't mind me asking, what do you study at uni?)

Excellent shot, I wasn't aware that such a place down Maq Pass existed! I'm usually going for a blat up/down the Pass on my motorbike so I guess I could be excused

There's some lovely places I'd love to explore down in the highlands, just need to get out there and explore!

Thanks for all the comments. Just to answer your question Alpha_7 I am doing Materials Engineering. What did you study when you went through?

Lovely shot dm52. There is a softness together with a strong sense of scale provided by your composition and astute placement of the young lady in the scene.
cheers

Computer Engineering, but in the real world I'm working in IT.
