First Startrails Attempt

It was a clear night last night so I went out and setup my camera to time-lapse and also create a startrails photo.
This was what I ended up with:

The photo itself is made up of 30 second stacks shot with the built in interval timer on the K-7 over a period of about three hours, final stack and post was done in Photoshop.
I also put together a timelapse video but was a bit disappointing as I noticed condensation happening halfway through the shots, I'll post it up anyway as it looks pretty cool but lesson learnt: use hand warmer packs to keep the lens from fogging up.

Tuggers Timelapse

Lardman and I decided to go out to a hill behind his place to see if we could get some nice star trails unfortunately that wasn't to be since it decided to be overcast.
So instead we ended up shooting timelapses. Lessons learnt from our first time shooting for an extended time at night: bring entertainment, blankets, hot food and drink.

This was the short timelapse I ended up with.

Photography – “Blue Car”

Took this while I saw this lovely Lancer Evo 10 while waiting for a tow truck to get my car out of Civic.
This photo is actually made up of several shots I took with my 50mm lens and then stitched together in Photoshop.

Enjoy!

Yeerabi Pond Sunset

This one's from the vault I took this a while ago on the way to a family friend's home, we had to drop by another friend on the way to give gifts of some sort.
While waiting in the car I noticed the beautiful sunset by the pond, so with camera in hand I popped down to the waterfront and took a few snaps.

Stitched together in Photoshop CS5 which seems to have a much improved Photomerge algorithm compared to CS3.

Photograph[s] were completely unedited.

Perth, Anime and Jesus?

So we went to the Perth Convention Exhibition Centre yesterday to drop in on the last day of Wai-con.

Before that since it was a Sunday we went to church service with our family friends who are kind enough to host us (props to them) here in Perth, the church was Sunset Coast Church.
It was a very eye opening experience to say the least, my old view of the classic preacher in church was blown out of the water in fact when we rocked up to service it was like entering some sort of rock concert with performers on a large stage and singing evangelistic music.
The service was pretty standard affair with awesome musical interludes in-between: Church news, explanation of scripture, prayer and passing around the donation buckets the general stuff you'd expect from going to church.
The musical interludes I have to admit were of extremely high quality and the whole operation was damn slick complete with charismatic preacher.

Anyway after service it was Wai-con time dispite having to take serveral detours, and parking 5 minutes short of the convention center we eventually made our way to the venue.
