The Samyang 6.3/300 mirror reflex lens (450mm on my camera sensor) is actually a long tele lens, but in my kind of photography it works very well for close-ups too. Fixed at F6.3, the lens allows me to focus on minute details.
Anoter view of the late blooming Hibiscus in our garden. . Love how the pistils and stamen stand out.
This image is not from this year, but it does actually involve a funny story with too much lens, finding myself in a slippery river with no shoes and using my tripod as a balancer and praying I would not dump me or my camera in the river. I'll let you figure the rest out, but I'm lucky to have even had a shot turn out 😮
Part of the National Conservation Lands, this headland area is dramatic: waves crashing against basalt sea stacks, harbor seals sunbathing, lots of sea faring birds.
The color contrasts & pure blue skies behind this 1873 lighthouse are what drew me to taking this shot; I was also experimenting with focus, depth-of-field & overall sharpness.

Taken today during my latest visit to the Hunter Wetlands Centre, Shortland NSW with long time friend and fellow flickr tog Joe Micallef.
Bird activity was relatively quiet following the abundant rain and flooding along the East Coast of NSW.
Hope you like this one.
