Viewers can appreciate the beauty of the formation from the...

This image is kind of lucky one. My friends and I were in Dubbo in Western Plains Zoo a couple of years ago. And I was absolutely unlucky to make decent photos in Zoo. The last day was quite dull and rainy, we were driving back to Sydney and suddenly rain stopped and sun rays...

The most classical view of Perth downtown from Kings park. Cliché shot. But due to bad weather during my recent trip is was difficult to shot even a cliché. Ten images were made with cheap Nikkor 50/1.8D (still cannot believe that $150 lens produces absolutely superb images) and then stitched with Autopano Pro.
PS. I...

Probably the last photo from my recent trip to the Gold Coast.
Shot from Evandale park. But actually if you move to the left for a little bit (about 100 or 200 meters) there will be a much better photo spot. Unfortunately I discovered that only when it was too dark for shooting.

One of the classical views of the Sydney Opera House and Harbor Bridge. Wanted to make this shot for a long time but always had some other business or shot from other spots. Finally last Sunday I was able to do that. While I was shooting I was bitten by mosquitoes - my hands were...

About 2.5 years ago I already shot of the Natural Bridge in Springbrook National Park. But I was there in a dry season and the waterfall was quite weak. This time I came there in rainy weather. You can see the difference.

This abandoned farmhouse was first photographed by famous Australian landscape photographer Ken Duncan. After that a lot of photographers go on their pilgrimage to that place. It’s located 3 km north of Burra, on the Barrier Highway, just next to the road. The best time for photographing it is the second part of the day...
