Veolia Wildlife Photographer Competition
White faced heron (100_2935)
This image went through to the semi final round in the Veolia Environnement Wildlife Photographer of the Year Competition. As wildlife photography is not my main focus, but an ‘incidental’ I am well pleased.
Seascapes and a seagull
I toodled down to Duranbah yesterday and the surf was impressive but almost unrideable, the waves were only about 1 metre but they were just exploding with force. I caught a couple of nice wide view seascapes though and a seagull in flight I am fairly pleased with.
All with 1DsMkII and 100-400 zoom. As usual, large sizes on my Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/45888581@N00/.
Vintage Lakes Wetlands
Naturally, as a photographer I like taking bird shots. They always look good and some species can make pretty darned spectacular subjects.
I am lucky enough to have a local lake/wetland in the Vintage Lakes housing estate, at South Tweed Heads, just down the road. I visit there often, here are some images from the area.

and some individual egret shots from a later visit
