Somersby Falls, Central Coast, NSW, Australia.
Somersby Falls walking track winds down to the bottom of the falls along a graceful 100m path, with lookout stops along the way. This is a great walk at any time of year, but it really shines in the summer months, when the cool spray offers a respite from the heat, and after heavy rains, when the falls are particularly striking.

“Beneath the foggy sky the glowing sea is hazy, the soft light of a scarf over a lamp.” ― Melissa Barbeau,
A very early image from when I first took up photography, golden hour underneath the Rail Bridge in Glasgow, stunning light and old architecture.
It's a great city

Pictoralism: creating an image rather than simply recording it.
To render the subject's inherent emotion and the scene's atmosphere.
Chicago nighthawk - 11 pm - 11 degrees
Those golden windows with their variable lighting attracted me.
Hmmm, still a simple, flat, gesture-less photo. Not too many people wandering the streets at 11pm on a bone freezing night.
I spotted this character about a block away. Ok, but I needed something more. I took the camera off the tripod and decided to add natural lateral blur to preserve the lateral lines.
The car park at the University of Melbourne. This car park was used in the filming of Mad Max. I've wanted to photograph this for years.

Beneath the painted sky, that's where I want to be
A place to go when this old world gets the best of me
A place where dreams come true and no one ever says, "Goodbye"
You've carried on so long
You couldn't stop if you tried it.
You've built your wall so high
That no one could climb it
But I'm gonna try
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful?
Would you let me see beneath your perfect?
Take it off now, girl, take it off now, girl
I wanna see inside
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight?

The small island of Inchgarvie sits in the Firth of Forth, beneath the Forth Rail Bridge.
In the spring of 1879 work started on the island for a proposed bridge over the Forth that was never built. Today you can still see the column of bricks that were built for the bridge. the castle dates from 1490 and was used as a prison in 1519-1671.
In 1779 cannons were mounted here when John Paul Jones threatened the Firth of Forth
This is a composite image of two images taken. The foreground was at ISO 400 for 30 seconds, and the sky was taken at ISO 8000 for 30 seconds. The foreground at the lower ISO is more crisp along the ridges ... adding to the composition I think.
Layered together in PS Elements.
The Milky Way capture I applied darker black levels and higher white levels, and then a bit of the higher clarity using the brush tool to the area within the Milky Way. It is amazing the details captured there in the night sky in the RAW file at ISO 8000. Playing with the RAW pixels and the information captured on the sensor can be quite fun.
Another shot from my recent trip to West Yorkshire - one of the bridges of the Rochdale Canal, Hebden Bridge.
“O, to be sure, we laugh less and play less and wear uncomfortable disguises like adults, but beneath the costume is the child we always are, whose needs are simple, whose daily life is still best described by fairy tales.”
