Kingfisher (カワセミ)

I went back down to the same spot I took those egret photos the next day, and got a few good shots of some black kites, but I quite like this shot. I spotted this little kingfisher sitting in the shade on a rock. The shot was a bit dark, and my zoom not big enough, but I quite like this. You can see the kite shots in the following gallery:

大鷺を撮った次の日、同じ場所に行ってみた。こんどは鳶とかの写真も撮れたけどこのカワセミの写真が気に入った。陰に座ってたし、望遠は足りんかったし、あんまりはっきり見えないけどこの写真が好き。鳶とかの写真を見たいなら上のリンクをクリックして。

Great Egret #2: Kiss my... (大鷺 #2)

Another shot from the same session 2 days ago.

この間のやつ。

Great Egret #1 (大鷺： 命！！)

Well I got my new Nikkor 18-200mm lens last week and had been raring to get out and give it a spin. I went down to the river today and spend a couple of hours stalking this fella. After a while he got quite used to me and I was able to get pretty close. I wish the lens had a bit more reach on it, but the results were much better than my Tamron 28-300mm lens. Very clear shots.

先週、新しいレンズを買った。Nikkor 18-200mm。今まではTamron 28-300mmを使ってたから、そのレンズとの違いを見たかった。そのために川に行ってこの大鷺を二時間位追いかけた。結構近くまで行って撮れたのでとても嬉しかった。かなり奇麗な写真が撮れた。この大鷺は命のポーズしてる！

Dragonfly #2 (とんぼ #2)

I snapped this little fella while I was out walking around on the weekend.
週末に近所を歩きながらこれを撮った。

War Of The Worlds (宇宙戦争)

I took this while out wandering around my neighbourhood yesterday afternoon. It looks like a giant caterpillar is invading the earth.

昨日、近所を歩きながらこの写真を撮った。巨大な毛虫が地球を襲ってるみたいに見える。

The Invisible Spectrum: Infrared Photography #2 (赤外線:#2)

Long Exposure (長時間露出)

Well I had been wanting to try and get some good night shots for a while, so when I was back in Perth last year I decided to head up to Kings Park overlooking the city and have a fiddle with some long exposure shots. I hadn't really tried before so it took a bit of experimenting, but it really wasn't that hard to get a decent shot with a tripod. This shot seems to be one of the more popular photos on my website (http://www.giphsub.smugmug.com/) I quite like the result and definitely want to try and do some more long exposure photography.
去年パースに帰った時に、この写真を撮った。長時間露出の写真を撮ろうと思っていたので、キングズパークに行き撮ってみた。この写真が撮れた。実はそんなに難しくはない、三脚さえあれば。僕のウェブサイトで(http://www.giphsub.smugmug.com/ )この写真は結構人気があるみたい。
