I was passing a stairway over the railway station and I have noticed the stairs seemed to lead to the emerging moon. I thought it created an interesting view for this photograph especially with the shadow play on the stairs.
I went to the beach really early today. It was a beautiful, clear morning. Actually to clear for a interesting landscape. My usual spot around the base of Skillion looked frankly dull. I packed up my tripod and moved to the top of the hill leading to the sport oval. This vantage point spans entire Terrigal beach.
There was a thin crescent of the Moon and last star visible on a beautifully blue sky, while at the horizon the yet to rise sun provided for a hazy strawberry cream colour layer.
The scene for this landscape photograph looked very serene. Cold morning provided for good, crystal clear visibility.
One of the fishing boats started its trip out to the ocean. This is the point in time I have selected to capture this view. Everything quite beautiful and dreamy and at the same time there is this little human elements of fishermen going after their catch.
Waiting for lunar eclipse – Terrigal, NSW, Australia. Bigger image can be seen here.
While I was waiting for the lunar eclipse the other day the cloud cover was quite heavy and for a moment I thought all my preparations will go in vane. Looking long at these clouds I realised instead of complaining about the weather I should take the advantage of it. This photograph is the result of that observation.
This photograph of fully eclipsed moon was taken at Terrigal. I’ve used my 70-200 Sigma lens with Kenko MC7 2x converter thus the actual focal length was 400mm. The moon was very dim and the focusing was very difficult both for manual and auto focus modes.
