For some reason, OM-System has scheduled a product announcement for the same day as Apples iPhone event. I am far more excited about a new camera for a system I don't use, than I am for a folding iPhone

I only discovered it because I was checking the IBIS setting on the body, which told me to check the lens 🤦 I can’t believe I ever turned it off

IN MOTION I'm not a star model, but I'm trying to experiment with my Milky Way photography. Lit by my iphone, my trusty Forester and I put in 1000km on this Milky Way chase. Carcoar Dam (NSW) #milkyway #astrophotography #nightscape

I prefer to stay up late, so it’s sunsets and Milky Way for me.

Sunset at The Rock Lookout in Mulgoa, NSW. One of the benefits of living at the foot of the Blue Mountains is being able to zip down to this spot when the light is good #sunset #landscapephotography #localphotographer #bluemountains
The Nepean river cuts through a densely forested gorge during twilight. The sky displays soft blue and pink hues with wispy clouds, while dark green trees cover the steep hillsides on both sides of the reflective water below.

I'm not 100% sold on the edit. Sometimes when I look at them, they feel oversaturated... but maybe that's how they need to be to convey how I felt standing there in that moment?

Been busy with life, but I managed to sneak out yesterday and catch the sunset in my local neighbourhood. #sunset #landscapephotography #localphotographer

The scene features warm peachy-pink and blue-gray tones with wispy clouds, creating a serene atmospheric mood as geometric power lines contrast with the organic cloud formations.Power lines stretch diagonally across a deep blue twilight sky with birds flying in a V.

We all worry that Meta and the other tech firms know too much about us… and then they ask a childless middle aged man if he’s interested in necklaces and parenting 🤷

Been unhappy with the how few Milky Way shots I've managed so far this season. I might have to go for a road trip next weekend

I've seen some great aurora photos from the solar storm on the weekend, but I can't help but think that people were rushing their edits out the door: please level your photos! Once I've seen a slanted horizon, I can't actually see the subject of your image 🙃

Hmm the background contrast seems to have made the colour saturation a bit strong.

Native Australian plants don't change colour for autumn. It's common to travel into the Blue Mountains to see the season change. #bluemountains #landscapephotography #autumncolours #fallcolors #rural

Looking to my catalog for inspiration for a shoot in Kirribilli this evening. I don't have many shots, which is kind of liberating! Here's a nice bit of afternoon light on the ferris wheel at Luna Park #lunapark #sydneyphotographer
