Another Tasmania picture. This time it is of Wineglass Bay. Sadly, it was an overcast day, and so there weren’t many great colors captured. However, the beach there is absolutely beautiful. We had lunch on some rocks and watched the dolphins in the bay. This … Read More →

D800 Pre-Order
I’ve held out for a long time to buy a new camera body. I thought I really wanted the D700, but then never actually made the purchase. I knew that the D800 was coming soon, which meant I’ve been waiting for that for awhile too. … Read More →
Sea Star
Shocker, it’s been awhile since I last updated…again. I’ve got tons of photos to go through, there are just a few network issues with the new place, oh and time. Within the last month we went and saw some incredibly exciting semi-final Australian Open tennis … Read More →

Prawns and Peppers
With the launch of the new family food blog, I’m hoping there will be additional food shots moving forward. I really like the colors and clarity of this photograph. Plus it’s been awhile since I’ve actually used my DSLR (and I love me some food!). … Read More →
Port Melbourne Sunsets
Now that the days are getting longer (and warmer) down here in the southern hemisphere, we’re really able to take advantage of the weather. One of those is the beautiful sunsets over the western part of Port Phillip Bay. This post will just keep getting … Read More →
Australian Wildlife
We (the Chicago group) were sitting outside on Adam’s porch, and all the sudden this very large spider crawled down the wall and across his patio. While it was making its voyage, we were enthralled. Travis threw his keys down to put the size into perspective, and … Read More →
