Octoberfest

This is quite paradoxical but few hours before my father passed away I went out with my wife and a couple of friends to an Oktoberfest at Terrigal. I must say I had a lot of fun, I even danced (must have been first time in years).
Naturally, other than some corny German folk music there is little in common with the actual Oktoberfest. The food was “questionable” and not a lot of selection in German beers. Never the less everyone made a party out of it. Many people even dressed up for the occasion.

The Skillion

I seldom photograph landscapes with showing them in black and white. Today however I tried exactly that. So, here is the photograph of the Skillion at Terrigal photographed in HDR (three blended exposures) and converted to black and white.

Sandstone rocks and the ocean

Here is a postcard style landscape photograph of some sandstone rocks and the ocean. This photograph was taken at the base of Skillion at Terrigal in the morning sun.

Cliff

I thought this photograph of a cliff in Terrigal exhibits particular 3D characteristics. This photograph was taken with Canon Ef 24-70mm F/2.8 lens. It a HDR image made from 3 exposures.

Sunday sunrise

Here is another Sunday sunrise from Terrigal. This photograph is a blend of three exposures - so called HDR (High Dynamic Range) technique.

Crown Plaza Roof

It has been a while since I have posted last abstract photograph. Although people are by far my most fascinating subjects I do photograph other things, even if I post them here rarely.

Here is the roof line of Crown Plaza at Terrigal against morning sky.

Breakfast for one

It’s a sleepy morning at Terrigal. Usual crowd of sport and fitness fanatics is nowhere to be found. It must be either too early or too cold for them. In fact there are very few people all around. Couple of joggers and and couples on their holidays are taking walks along the sandy beach.

An older man with coffee cup is reading a newspaper at the aluminium table. He is soaked in rising sun as is the magnificent tree behind him.
