Stormy Strahan sunset

 Whilst sorting through my Lightroom photo library this morning I found this previously overlooked photo of a stormy sunset at Strahan Harbour,Tasmania taken in March of this year.

Friday 11th October

 Photos from my early morning walk in Terrigal today. Another sunny day ahead. The warmer mornings are bringing out walkers and dog owners.

 Photo taken from the deck of home looking south into the Terrigal Bowl. Shot at 6.14pm last Saturday just after the sun had set. It was the last day before we put the clocks forward one hour to switch to Summer Time.  

It had been a beautiful, warm and sunny day and being a long weekend many of the weekender houses and apartments were occupied so the bowl was full of lights.

Photo taken with the Leica SL2 with the 20-70mm zoom f2.8 1/125th second at ISO12,500 . Photo processed in Lightroom using the Denoise feature to take out the noise generated by using the high ISO. At a very high magnification on my 27"monitor the twin newsreaders can be seen on the TV in the apartment visible in the centre of the photo.

 

Out of the cold wind

 

 

I found this photo quite by chance last week. It was taken in 2013 at the Ocean Baths at Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia on a sunny winter's day. It reminds me of days this winter in Terrigal when the sun was shining but the wind off the sea was icy.

The man and his little dog found a sheltered spot. The fact that he is reading a newspaper and not looking at his phone dates the photo.

The photo was taken with my Leica X1. Last week I entered it into the Leica LFI Gallery and it was selected to appear in the gallery.               

 I quote from the LFI email 'This means your image now ranks among the top representatives of this genre within the LFI Gallery. Congratulations!'. A nice plaudit for a photo taken 11 years ago and passed over by me until last week.
