My first visit to the Gibson Steps on the Great Ocean Road was timed to the very last minute for that perfect shot. The tide was in favour and the weather was supposed to be fantastic...supposed to be !! The rain came down in bucket loads. We couldn't see beyond the windscreen and we learned much about the unpredictability of the Melbourne weather! The second trip to GOR was sort of unplanned and just happened and the weatherman decided to smile on us :)
This is one Stinky Old Photograph: This photo was taken a while back and the amount of camera gear I have has grown by leaps and bounds (not sure yet if this is a good or bad thing). You can see the new gear photo by going here.
Original Desc: Well here it is, my camera gear...all indivudally noted and all strewn out for the world to see. 90% of it was bought in the last 10 months. It all fits in the camera bags at the top and the bags are normally packed to the brim with the gear.
My wife is a very patient and kind soul but I think I'm at the limit for a good long while, when I was arranging this stuff on the bed to take photo of it in our guest room she just about snapped seeing everything laying there. If I buy much else I will probably be justifiably shot, so if I stop suddenly posting to Flickr you'll know I likely got a new piece of gear and was subsequently killed.
I enjoy a number of hobbies (music, cars, cycling, camping, boating, technology and more), but one of the things I like about photography is it's a hobby that can be incorperated into every other hobby and aspect of life. In photography I've found something that I really, really enjoy and is a way I can have a semi-creative outlet for my soul. But as cool as photography is, music is still my main passion and I think that's the way it will always be...

Reversal Process with HC-110b (12 min) and C-41
Aug. 2021
Well this was a happy accident if there ever was one. I found this cheap Promaster K-Mount camera and decided to run a roll through it. Uniquely this camera has a split prism viewfinder with the prism split at a 45 degree angle. It also has 1/2000th top shutter speed. Not bad for a K-Mount body.... but it must have had a mirror alignment issue because every frame was out of focus even though my viewfinder said otherwise. This frame still managed to stand out despite the focus issue. Further, doing this c-41 reversal process did something unique to this old slide film.
Loved the various stages of these tulip petals just before they completely left the stem bare. Reminded me of swirling skirts of dancers.....
Happy May Day and have a grand weekend! ~ Pat
It took me a while to find a composition back this far from the falls. The fallen tree made for an interesting, if difficult to photograph, bridge over the stream. There was also quite some amount of distracting junk in the foreground. Luckily, a good position and some zoom made it work out!
