Shaped Bokeh

I made a number of Shaped Bokeh filters for the front of the lens, and had a play.

This photo was made by shooting deliberately out of focus on some Christmas lights.

The colours are dull since I uploaded it to Flickr.

Mossman Gorge Waterfall

This is a photo I took on a recent trip to Mossman Gorge about 45 minutes north of Cairns. I was really mad with myself on this trip as I forgot to pack my tripod. Honestly, of all the things to forget to pack. Anyhow, I set up my camera on top of my camera bag on a rock in the middle of the stream. This stream is a tributary of the main river in Mossman Gorge.
