This is my brother-in-law. Sometimes I think we're all a bit much for him.

















This is my Dad. He just takes everything in his stride.

The Jetty





This picture of the jetty was taken in the afternoon. I used landscape setting. I also used shadow, sharpen & sepia.








For this scene I increased the shadow, highlights & warmed the colour temperature. I also changed it to black & white.












This is edited using black & white, shadow & warmify.


Here I used a light blue gradual tint, cool temperature & highlights. I also sharpened the picture.

The moon was so beautiful that I didn't want to fiddle too much. This was taken at ISO 80.I've increased the saturatuion slightly.

Seagull Collage

This is a Multi Exposure Collage using the 2 pictures below. I added some shadow, highlights & cooler colour.
I took this shot from inside my car (with the fish & chips).
I put the window down for this shot & used landscape setting.

Posing Seagulls

All these seagulls were quite happy to pose for photos. They were much more co-operative than my children & husband! I used 'Portrait' setting for this shot & then added more shadow & cropped the background.

This is a cropping of the picture below. I've added some shadow.
















These gulls were all lined up facing the wind. It was raining & I was sitting in my car eating fish & chips.

Boat at Coffs





I used Picasa2 to zoom in & then crop the picture. I increased the shadow & saturation to give the deepness to the blues & greens.










This is my original photo. I used 'Landscape' setting on my camera which automatically
set the ISO to 80
.

Coffs Harbour Jetty



I used Picasa2 to add shadows & contrast in this picture. The scene looks a bit futuristic with the intense colours.












This is the same picture with added shadows, sharpened edges & changed to black & white. It reminds me of an old gangster movie.


This picture was taken at 5.40am ! Talk about dedication! I was trying to catch the sunrise but the cloud was too heavy & I was in the wrong place. This is my original picture. The camera was set on 'sunset mode' which intensified the reds & yellows & automatically set the ISO to 400. Did I mention that this was taken at 5.40am??
