The weather at the Melbourne Formula 1 this year was hot and dry, but perfect for taking photos.
The racetrack wasn't very camera friendly, however the rest of the city was. Here are the shots I took when I spent a weekend down there earlier this year...

This water dragon has been foraging around our backyard for the past few days so I decided to get the camera out and take a few snaps. Surprisingly, he wasn't afraid of the camera and let me get right up close which allowed me to focus on the detail of his scales.

We gave them back to the RSPCA a couple of months ago. I wonder if they're still together, and how big they are?

Apologies for not posting anything for five days, but I have been busy shifting furniture and painting and I haven't had the chance to get the camera out.
Here's a shot I took last year while walking through Buderim Rainforest in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. It was a great walk and there are plenty of photo op's along the way. However, as with any rainforest, it is quite dark under the canopy so clear photos sometimes aren't achievable

Last September I went to Hobart and we drove up through to Launceston and then back down the east coast. It was great to see the unspoilt landscapes on offer throughout the regions -- Tasmania has done well to preserve its natural surroundings.
Lucky for us there was still snow on Mt Wellington (Hobart) down to 300m. This was extremely rare for that time of year and it was amazing to see everything covered in white, even though it was nearly summer

I set my SLR's white balance to overcast and found it produced some really rich colours, especially greens and browns
