Full moon

Taken on 22nd December 2010. Unfortunately last night due to bad weather I missed the lunar eclipse. Tonight the moon was very impressive so I thought I'd have an attempt at my very first moon shot. My new nikkor 70-300mm lens, an early Christmas present (thanks B!) did wonders.
Tripod, f11 aperture, 1/125 sec, ISO200, 300mm, timer

Johnston Street Fiesta 2010

Every year thousands of Melburnians are lured to Fitzroy for a weekend fiesta of food, music and dancing. The street is lined with stalls serving paella, chorizo sausages, sangria, tapas and other taste sensations. This was the first year I have attended and I absolutely loved it! Will definitely go back again next year.

Summer

The weather here in Melbourne has been quite depressing lately, rain, rain and more rain! I have been really struggling to find inspiration to get me in the shooting mode for the start of the summer season. Spent some time today looking through photographs I took nearly a year ago and I was instantly reminded of the warm summer nights, night markets in the city, live music, sunsets and wonderful people that I can share all the with again. Bring it on!
