Some of my FAV travel pics...

Some of my travel PICS
We all take good photos and it’s a shame we don’t all share them, I like seeing what others have taken and I hope that you’ll like these
My cameras have been a Fuji Finepix S1000 (6M Pix)?? – sold it on eBay last year and presently use a Canon EOS 400D 10M PIX, 18-55 and 75-300 lenses.
I do curse the size and coughbersome factor of the SLR but the photo quality and the burst rate is worth it.
1. The Lounge Lizard

I snapped this pic in Alice Springs a couple of years ago

2. The Birds

I was at Southbeach in Tampa when a dude arrived at the bar (of course) on a Harley, no helmet and a Parot riding shotgun. An evil bird that wanted to bite everything but beautiful none the less.

Another evil bird! In my line of work, I sometimes end up in power stations across the country. This crow was on the roof area of a Queensland station and would spend the whole day swooping anyone who came up. The scary part was the bird would swoop while you were on the stairs which were over 40M above the ground.

3. In from the cold

0757 in the morning, minus 23 degrees C, 'twas a cold one that day! That evening it reached -29.5. Sweden in Feb'.

Those are stunning pictures, Mr! Can see you are highly skilled with the camera.

I have some photos myself, but to hand pick the best ones might take a while! Most of them were taken on less sophisticated compact digital cameras (some with a Sony DSCP-200, some with a Nikon Coolpix S200). Feel free to view my FT photo galleries.

Great pictures. Where is the Jabiru photo taken? Near the town or down near the south alligator river valley?

OK I tried to narrow it down, but went a bit overboard and then got this error:

You have included 58 images in your message. You are limited to using 6 images so please go back and correct the problem and then continue again.

So go here for my 58 highlights. These were taken on a Kodak DX3900, Nikon F55, and Nikon D50. Below are some examples.

Here are some of mine. The cameras used to shoot these photos aren't spectacular, but they look OK at medium resolution, and probably would be OK in 6x4 print.

Wellington

Totem at Waitomo

A Green Stone at Te Puia, Rotorua

Quay Building, Auckland

A laneway in Auckland

An Auckland city street (looking up the hill towards K Road)

Finally, I do take quite a few food and drink shots. Most of it is only purely "record" value, but in other cases they do look good. Simplicity and tidiness often defines such a good picture.

QF44, pre-flight champagne

A beer, Cascade Brewery

The cheese platter on board our cruise to Peppermint Bay, Tasmania. When you look at this picture, it really does looks like an artistic scene on board a ship (with the map at the base).
