Burchell’s Zebra

A quick break from wedding photography….

Here is another black and white photograph to add to my African series. Enjoy.

NIKON Advertising Real or Fake?

These days ads can take us on a ride and fool even the smartest adult.

Take a look at this example I noticed at work today. Robbie Williams is holding a BLACK Nikon Coolpix camera to take a photo of the crowd in the  Nikon “I AM” commercial…..

Now take a look at the real video.  He is actually using a SILVER camera not a BLACK camera. Fooled? Should we even believe that this is a Nikon Camera? Did this ad make you want to go out and buy a stylish Nikon Coolpix? Let me know what you think by posting a comment on the blog.

Burchells Zebra

Hasn’t time flown? Since before the Easter break I have been madly redeveloping our backyard.  Caroline and myself have decided to go all eco. Raised veggie beds, chooks and new plants (including retic) all have to go in! So that is why you haven’t seen many photos for a while.  Bruised and sore from all the soil shifting and construction I have managed another African image for you all.

I’m off to the Hunter Valley (NSW) tomorrow so if my wireless works you may see a few images while I’m over there!

Until then,

Happy shooting.

Something is a bit fishy!

Fish? What the?

Shouldn’t it be birds on my blog?

Pines in the early morning

Horse


Burchells Zebra

How long has it been since the last post?

Sorry to all those people who have visited the blog daily only to find the same images up!

I have been extremely busy with weddings. It takes me four weeks just to finish one wedding. (Thats the reason I don’t advertise myself sometimes two jobs can get a bit overwhelming!)

Hope you all enjoy this one.

Until next time

Happy Shooting!

This one’s for David

Well David you inspired me on the last image you posted…(If you haven’t see it click on David Sobik Photography on the blogroll on the right). Here’s my effort to get a reflection.

Enjoy!

Bibra Lake

Waking up was the hardest part today. My body just wanted to keep sleeping but I’m glad my mind was stronger because I had the best morning shoot ever!

The subject: Black Swans

Got to Bibra Lake (1 minute away) by moonlight and these were some of the results.

Enjoy.

Until next time.

Happy Shooting!

Seeing stripes

I’m seeing stripes. Everything is black and white. I physically can’t edit any other photos now it has to be zebra, zebra and more zebra. So thats all you are going to get!

Enjoy

Suprise!

Many people don’t have the patience when it comes to photographing animals. It takes a lot of waiting around and quite a few days to get what you want. The age old saying “never work with babies or animals” is so true!

Persistance is the other thing you will need a lot of when trying to capture that winning image. I have lost count of the number days that I have been to the same location just hoping that it might be my lucky day. Eventually you might get it and thats the day you sit back with a cold beer in one hand, hopefully cheque in the other and a big smile on your face.

So I encourage every photographer out there…landscape, wedding, portrait, artistic or just plain amature to take your camera and lens, point it at an animal and click! Then send me the link to your photo and I will post it on my blog so everyone can see it.

Happy Shooting.
