Here and There
Gerry and I took a trip up the Blue Mountains to shoot sunset and then hopefully some astro and light painting. That was the plan at least 🙂
Gerry’s prediction of 100% high clouds around sunset was a good call. The additional 100% middle and low cloud that also showed up, along with gale force winds and rain not so much 🙁
This was a quick take just after we’d shot sunset from this neat little cave at Lincoln’s Rock. When we climbed back up the top of the cliff we discovered these very cool rock formations that would be great for light painting later
Here’s a quick shot (2 minute long exposure – using one of the extended shutter speeds on my new Nikon Z6 III) of me with the last of the dying twilight and some light painting courtesy of Gerry
Off to dinner in Katoomba before coming back here for some light painting and hopefully astro (if those clouds would just blow over – the radar was looking somewhat promising)
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.
