Rivers of Gold

NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S @ 14 mm, 92 sec at f/11, ISO 64 x 4 Frames

This is my favourite image from my morning session at Ballaarat Park. It’s a panoramic stitch of four long exposure frames taken just after 7AM. The sun has risen now leading to some epic golden colours

Here I’ve used the ND64 (6 stop) ND filter to lengthen the exposures dramatically

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger. To see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer click any of the images.

Cross City

NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S @ 14 mm, 123 sec at f/11, ISO 64

Dropped in the ND64 (6 stop) Kase filter for this long exposure. To smooth the water to glass and drag the clouds through the sky which were thankfully moving on the right direction for this compo

Sydney Vapours

NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S @ 14 mm, 55 sec at f/8, ISO 64 x 4 Frames

I took a trip down to Ballaarat Park in Pyrmont one morning for a sunrise session. I’d invited Gerry along but alas…

I’d never shot at this location before but it’s easy to get to. It looks right across Darling Harbour to the new Barangaroo area and the wider Sydney city CBD

This is a stitched panorama of four vertical frames almost a minute long at 6:15AM
