Hi all. Sorry for the unexplained absence over the last week. I thought I would have more access to the Internet than I have had. I got back from Melbourne last Tuesday. Pretty much straight away, we headed off in the Winnebago on our outback journey. At the moment we should have been heading back up the Queensland coast to Cairns, but we had to make an unscheduled pit-stop in Brisbane in order to get the CV joints fixed on the van. I have managed to get some limited Internet access so I’m taking this opportunity to do this update.

I’ve managed to take lots of photos over the last week and once I have a bit more time, I’ll upload them on my flickr pages and here for everyone to see. I’m been playing a lot with my Canon 450D (aka the Canon Digital Rebel XSi) and the more that I investigate it’s features, the more I like it. Again, I’ll give a detailed review of some of these features in a future blog.

Here are a couple of shots that I took with the new Canon EFS 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM lens. Click on the photos to enlarge:

The continuing saga of my photographic adventures in Melbourne: Day 9

I’ve been experimenting a lot with my new Canon EOS 450D today. It’s a great camera that has 4,272 x 2,848 resolution and is 12.2 megapixels. The average RAW file is approximately 18MB and the processed jpeg is approximately 8MB.

We went to the MCG to watch the Collingwood v Richomond AFL game. Fortunately we had seats directly behind the goal and I managed to capture some great shots. I’ve only just got home, so I haven’t had a chance to process the images yet, except for these two which I processed just for this blog. The first is a panorama of the front of the Melbourne Cricket Ground and the second is a shot of the Collingwood team at the start of the game. Click on the photos to enlarge:

The continuing saga of my photographic adventures in Melbourne: Day 4

Today I bought a new lens. The EF 50mm f/1.8 II is fantastic for doing portrait shots. I did some this afternoon with Lyndon when he got home from work. I haven’t processed them yet though.

While in the city, I asked a busker who was playing the harmonica if I could take his photo and I got some wonderful shots of him. I haven’t properly processed those yet, but I have previewed the RAW files in Adobe Bridge and they look like they’re good. What I have processed so far is these panorama shots. I do these panoramas mainly for my own pleasure. They’re not very saleable but they’re fun to do. Here’s a couple of examples. Click on the pictures to enlarge:
