To Townsville, visiting the out (I mean in) laws...

Firstly the Christmas light pictures;

First one was taken as the sun was going down, shame the wind moved the shrubs on the left and blurred the lights a bit.
London Court

Second one was my first attempt at a panorama, tilted CCW unfortunately.
Bayswater Road

Third one was another panorama attempt, it seems that 512Mb of RAM is not enough to do perspective stitching in PS CS with 4 full sized RAW images
Can't Remember Cres

This is my favourite panorama, except for the cars
Greenwood Cres

This is a work in progress, was playing around with multiple layers in PS CS and a filter set called Virtual Photographer (this is Glamour). Wife wasn't feeling to well this day, taken at Port Hitchenbrook (sic?).
My Wife, a glamour to me

This one has shown me that I really need a lens hood for the 28-80mm lens (I got the Hardley Normal Kit rather than the proper kit lens ) The lens flare really annoyed me. This the the fall on the Strand.
Waterfall, the Strand

I turned around and loved the lighting on the trees from the previous photo...
Eerie tree, the Strand

This is me being artsy, yes I know the light in the bottom corner is distracting, I may clone it out yet, but I wanted the trunk leading up to the crown of the palm tree. This was taken at 19:28, 30s at f/10.

Love 6069! Strong composition and beautifully arranged. That's art.

Great shots Brett, the one of your wife is fantastic, love the composition and the look. Excellent work.

G'day Brett,

http://www.griffin.net.au/D70users/Town ... C_6069.jpg &
http://www.griffin.net.au/D70users/Town ... 0-crop.jpg are both great! Great use of an interesting background in 6069 to set-off the shot, but 6090 invokes a real feeling of mystery and "spookiness" for me, love that shot! Great subject and composition... Wonder if you could crop out the two spot-lights in the background to centre the attention on the eerie glowing tree (or what-ever it is)... Really like that shot...

Cheers,
Mudder

This is my favorite. Great lighting.

Thanks for the kind words

I am so glad it wasn't just me that liked the lighting on the trees, was wondering if I was just being strange taking a photograph of that, got some weird looks when taking it

Cheers
Brett

Nice work Brett
Thanx for posting.

I also love this image but there was one thing that I found very amusing in it (might be my sleep deprivation coming through here) but I have highlighted the funny bit..looks a lot like ET or a snake type creature eating up part of the root...tell me you can see what I'm talking about and I'm not completely crazy? . Good one!

Cheers,

Geoff

I see it now, that's all I see when I look at it now ET having some spaghetti...
