Total Lunar Eclipse
Seeing all these photos of lunar eclipse on the net definitely give me a strong motivation to re-process my own lunar eclipse photos. So i went and processed all the photos taken during the lunar eclipse. I don’t think i have ever released any lunar eclipse photos before. So…… here they are, photos of lunar eclipse that i have taken…… 4 years ago in 2007 
And, there are also some with a bit of background so that it looks more interesting, hopefully.
A slight better quality ones can be found following the link below:
Perspective and creativity are all that matters.
Just about anything can be used as an object for photograph. Found this in Vapiano in city and think this is quite interesting.
Winter Festival 2011
Winter Festival is probably the only time to ice skate outside Brisbane City Hall. Unfortunately, ice skating is never one of my favourites and i am just happy to be outside photographing.
While thinking the ordinary skating photos are too common, i notice the round light from the festival actually made the scratch on the ice quite interesting. Under exposed a couple of photo with increased contrast and a bit of processing made the photos below.
Another attraction of the Winter Festival is the ice skating show. A perfect chance to practice. Trying not to use a very fast shutter with everything frozen, and keeping the shutter speed low with some blurred motion but a face that’s sharp enough is totally not easy. Didn’t try any pan shot though is a pity. By the time i was about to do pan shoot the show had already ended…
Brisbane and Gold Coast 5 years ago
Sort of retouching some landscape photos taken 6 years ago and realised the city has changed quite a bit.
Pumpkin Festival 2011
The Pumpkin Festival feels like a mini Ekka to me. Numerous of stall, shows can be found at the festival.
Of course this was not the reason we were there. We were there mainly for the famous pumpkin roll. Surprisingly, it looked more interesting than i thought. Unfortunately it was too late for me to registered. May have to come back next year despite the killing 3 hours drive.
Stopped by the Lake Wivenhoe on the way to the Pumpkin Festival and i certainly wouldn’t miss the chance to take some landscape photos.
