Many thanks for your visits, kind comments and faves, very much appreciated.

Monolithic and ancient, battered by the Tasman Sea. Located on Great Ocean Road near 12 Apostles

Spent a wonderful weekend in one of my favourite places with the fabulous FFF+ on a photography workshop there.

 

This is sunrise from Razorback in the Port Campbell National Park.

 

A big thank you also to Pete and Adam from focalscape photography tours for an awesome weekend. Can't recommend them highly enough.

Great Ocean Road

When last we visited Loch Ard Gorge .. it was a heatwave with 40°C blue skies and a howling offshore wind. Nothing like the windswept and interesting coast with big oceans and dramatic skies I'd been hoping for.

 

Well it was only 15°c lightly raining and had some slightly interesting skies this time around.

 

Still I got some images in 'just because' :-)

 

Pentax K1 w DFA15-30/2.8

 

Twelve frames raw developed in DxO PhotoLab 6, stitched in Affinity Photo 2, bit of a tweak in Topaz Photo AI, colour graded in Color Efex Pro 5 and finished off back in PhotoLab.

It's finally that time of year when I can get up into the High Sierra with my backpack and love life. :)

 

Thanks for stopping by; I always appreciate any feedback! This is a single exposure, handheld, 3-stop GND filter. You're not looking at direct morning light here, but rather true maroon pre-sunrise alpenglow. Do you want to see the whole frame a bit brighter? Is the snow on the bottom too bright for you?

…and I was back again. My beloved outback. This time it was more of an exploration with a couple of good mates than a photography trip but that’s not to say I didn’t look for more stunning and remote locations worthy of shooting.

 

So – this is a location in the Flinders Ranges I have actually spent some time looking for and this time, I finally found it. It’s not tricky to find once you know where it is – it’s just not close to where I have been before.

 

With our tents set up close by, a roaring campfire and some delicious pasta waiting to be cooked we had scoped this location the night before only to determine that it was definitely in need of a sunrise to reach it’s full potential.

 

I was woken up following morning by a wild dingo outside my tent and soon realized that the sky was looking promising so we scared off the Dingo and headed back to our view point of the razorback ridge.

 

Thankfully the colours came through and I walked away with a photograph I’d been hoping to one day have in my bag. Thanks again outback!

 

View large and, as always, thanks for looking!

Port Campbell, Victoria, AUS

I managed to capture this short wide meteor during my timelapse of Razorback.

 

The other thing that surprised me was the very high amount of noise from the borrowed A7Rm4. This image has been heavily processed in Topaz DeNoise which is the best software out there, but even it couldn't clean up this image all that well. Superb daytime camera, forget it for astro.

 

PS, If you live in Australia and would like to learn how to do this, I have started running Astro Landscape workshops. See my website www.rareview.photography for more info.

8224 and 8232 twist through the Cullerin range, as they lift a load from grain from Adlethan (starting out of Cootamundra in the morning) as 3922N to Port Kembla for export.

Great Ocean Road

A year ago today we were here! This is just one of the amazing sights along the Great Ocean Road, Victoria. This photo was somehow missed from our album so today it has been added, bringing back some great memories of our trip. We have been re-reading the diary on the appropriate day and reliving our holiday which was timely in so many ways!

 

HTT!

This was one of those rare sunsets where the colours really were as saturated as this image portrays. Certainly, I have made it look it's best but quite honestly, the cliffs really did explode in this golden orange and yellow glow as the sun was setting. It only lasted about 3 mins and I knew I had to work fast but nature dealt me a kind hand that afternoon.

One wrong move on the Razorback and it’s a fall equivalent to 400’...😦😅🚲

 

I placed this figure at a height of about 8’ off the ground. A #minifigure is about 1.5” tall; 8’ is 96”. If a 1.5” minifigure were scaled to 6’ tall it is equivalent to a 384’ off the ground.🤔😅

The Razorback is the sandstone steep rock in the Loch Ard Gorge, National Park Port Campbell, Victoria, Australia.

Croda da Lago cuts into the sky in the Dolomites of northern Italy. Some of the most amazing mountain ridges in the world. This evening I caught this last slice of sunlight on the mountains and the rising moon behind.

Port Campbell National Park, Great Ocean Road

View to Razorback at Black Head, a dramatic sea stack and a large tilted rock platform with pools and a cave. Seen from the Red Head lookout, New South Wales.

 

A small headland separates Diamond Beach from Shelly Beach. Red Head forms the southern boundary. It is composed of 250 million year old red shales interbedded with thin layers of volcanic ash together with fossil land plant remains (beachsafe.org.au). Further south is Black Head Beach, named after the Irish birthplace (Black Head, Antrim) of the first settler William Hoy, who moved to Black Head, New South Wales, around 1881.

 

Our daily challenge - Oceans, lakes & sea

Dramatic morning late last year on the Ocean Road overlooking the Razorback.

The Bunyeroo Valley road and its famous lookout offers impressive views of Razorback Ridge at the Northern end of Wilpena Pound.

September, 2023

Funny light here as because of the cloud band out west the top of the ridge never lit up. Just a minute of intense light on the valley instead.

Port Campbell National Park is world famous for its extraordinary collection of wave-sculpted rock formations and the Twelve Apostles. The rock stack is called the "Razorback". The sharp edges and bumps along its back are caused by wind-blown spray, which hardens small areas of rock. The softer rock around these erodes away, leaving an uneven surface. Wave energy channelled along the side of the stack carves the deep smooth grooves just above sea level. With one wave every 14 seconds, there is a lot of erosion over a year, a century, or a thousand years. The Razorback once extended much further out to sea. The force of the waves gradually eroded and undercut the base of the stack. Vertical cracks in the stack were widened by rainwater, forming a line of weakness. Huge blocks of rock then collapsed into the sea, leaving the rock shelf we can see today. Info according to Parks Victoria.

Bunyeroo Valley, Flinders Ranges

The Razorback is a limestone stack that stands in a cove near The Twelve Apostles that is constantly subjected to the forces of wind and water erosion of the Southern Ocean. Many limestone formations dot Australia’s Shipwreck Coast off the Great Ocean Road. The Shipwreck Coast stretches from to Cape Otway to Port Fairy, a distance of approximately 130 km. There are approximately 638 known shipwrecks along Victoria’s coast, although only around 240 of them have been discovered.

Awesome rock formation in the Port Campbell National Park, Australia

The sun has been up for about 45 minutes and is highlighting this view which takes in the Razorback Lookout which has a myriad of white wild flowers growing on its slopes. The Bunyeroo Valley is beyond where the continuation of the road can just be seen at the bottom of the valley, to the left of the lookout. A small section of the majestic Heysen Range dominates the background. Located in the Finders Ranges National Park in South Australia.

Also known as Haworthiopsis Attenuata or Zebra Plant!

Wonderful day concluded with a magnificent sunset at Razorback on the Great Ocean Road, near Port Campbell

Warhammer and Nexo Knights seem like a perfect match to me. I don’t play the table top games but I really like the vehicle designs and imagery.

 

Pointers from Jerac (www.flickr.com/photos/jerac/5164163208) and Slnine (flic.kr/p/q6dhmy) are clearly evident in this one, specifically the scale and design of the tracks.

 

I tried to come up with my own solutions to achieving the angles and offsets, and I hope it compliments their incredible creations.

 

The Razorback is yet another rock formation that one can view when visiting the Loch Ard Gorge precinct. It lies along the same path that takes one from the parking lot to Tom and Eva, and lies a further 5 minutes walk up the path.

 

The name is given to a limestone stack that stands in a cove that is constantly subjected to the forces of wind and water erosion of the Southern Ocean. The path to the vantage point of the Razorback forks into a loop. While approaching, the left fork will take one directly to the most direct vantage point to view the limestone stack. If you spend a few minutes watching the waves crash against the coastline, you will notice another cave forming in the cliff face, which is likely to one day form into a blow hole, or into another arch.

 

The right hand fork loops around the cliff top, and offers one a side view of Tom and Eva, and a view of Muttonbird Island.

 

Razorbacks center fielder Jake Dugger bunts for a base hit during the eighth inning of Saturday's game. The hit would start a three run rally during the inning. The Hogs went on to win 4-0 over Kansas.
