I got bored late last weekend and went for a short drive up to Bribie to take a dip in the ocean. It turned out to be a bit cold once the sun started going down, so I grabbed the camera from the car and took a couple of shots of this lagoon draining into the ocean.

Engagement Shoot
Yesterday Camille and I met up with Sarah-Rose and Ryan out at UQ St Lucia campus to take some engagement photos (we will be shooting their wedding in a few months). Below are a few of my favourite photos; Camille has uploaded hers here.
Fantasy Fiction – Setup Shots
Yesterday I helped Camille out with a shoot that she’s been planning for some time. It was a good excuse to try out my new 80-200mm f/2.8 lens
I took some shots “behind the scenes” which are below. Final shots will be on Camille’s blog shortly.

Wellington Point
Camille and I have been wanting to head out to Wellington Point for a while now to take some photos. I haven’t been out that way for years, so I decided to do a bit of recon this afternoon in case we decide to head out before the sun comes up some day. Don’t want to be trying to find a spot when you can’t see anything! I had assumed that being on the coast, I would need to get up for sunrise shots, but it turns out that the sunset shots are quite nice anyway. It was a good chance to try the new grad filters I bought at work
Friendly visitors
As Camille and I were heading out to dinner with her relatives, I noticed a rustling coming from the tree next to our stairs. It turned out to be two possums (a big one and a little one) feasting on the berries in the tree. We were already running a bit late, and I only had my 50mm lens on the camera, but I just had to take some photos of the cute little critters. Surprisingly they didn’t even run away – they just kept eating! I decided I would only take my prime lenses to dinner, as they needed a good workout (I haven’t used them for quite a while!). The following photos were either taken with my 50mm f/1.8 or my 28mm f/2.8 lenses at ISO 800/1000. A little bit of noise in the photos at such high ISO, but nothing Lightroom 3 couldn’t fix up
