Moorooduc Quarry

**
To many this is 'just' the local quarry -
to me it represents endless photographic opportunities.
**
These photos were taken with my Panasonic DMC-FSC

digital camera. I know I would have gotten much better

results had I used my Nikon and worried about the sunlight,

however for a Point and Shoot camera I was

quite pleased with the results.

Sunset at Mornington

**

I'm so lucky living in Mornington and having

the beach, with all it has to offer, right on my doorstep.

**

Last week, after studying all my notes on photographying

sunsets I headed down to the beach.

I'm sure I did a million things wrong, and I'll be

back again during the week to try again, but for

the moment I was pleased with my first attempt

at using the Aperature and Shutter Speed controls.

Tulip Farm

**

Tesserlar's Tulip Farm, in Olinda, is definately worth a visit.

Every October you can see an amazing display of

acres and acres of tulips in every colour of the rainbow.

**

I took the time to get down to ground level and

what I saw was truly beautiful.

The inside of these flowers was almost like the

human fingerprint - - - - everyone has them,

but that are all different.

Never Short of Subjects to Photograph

**

Every parent thinks their children are beautiful,

but mine really are!!!! And they make wonderful

subjects to photograph.

It drives them crazy, but I never tire of

photographing them.

**

These photos were taken at

The Briars Historial Homestead at Mt. Martha.

The old farming equipment makes fantastic

props for portraits.
