Jetty, In Colour

Jetty, In Colour, originally uploaded by jezza323.

A nice frost covered jetty on Lake Wakatipu, just outside of Queenstown. I can say from experience that it is very slippery! This is looking over towards The Remarkables. I was lucky to get a nice smooth bit of water for some great reflections.

This is another one taken with the Pentax K200D and Sigma 10-20mm f4.0-5.6, also used the Slik 500DX Pro tripod and remote cable release. 3 shots taken at +/- 2.0 EV and blended using Photomatix Exposure Blender, final processing in Lightroom 3

Lake Wakatipu Shoreline

This was breaking out the NDX400 filter in New Zealand. I went for a little walk along the shoreline of Lake Wakatipu and setup for some long exposures. This is looking up the lake towards the airport.

Taken with Pentax K200D and Tamron 17-50mm f2.8, Hoya NDX400 filter (9 stop ND), remote cable release and Slik 500DX Pro tripod. 3 shots taken at +/- 2.0 EV, blended using Photomatix and final processing in Lightroom 3

Queenstown Skyline

Taken from the lookout above Queenstown, this gives an idea of the amazing scenery here. The range in front is “The Remarkables”, the lake is “Lake Wakatipu” and the town is Queenstown itself.

Taken with Pentax K200D and Sigma 10-20mm f4.0-5.6 hand held. Blended from 3 shots at +/- 2.0 EV using Photomatix Exposure Blender, final processing in Lightroom 3

On the 26th of June 2010, I was married to my lovely wife, Kim. On the 27th of June, we jumped a plane across the ditch to New Zealand for our honeymoon. We chose Queenstown as our destination and it was amazing. I took about 10gb of photos all up, and had a great time. This is one of my favourites.

This is taken with my Pentax K200D, my recently acquired Sigma 10-20mm f4.0-5.6, my Slik 500DX Pro tripod, a remote cable release and a cheap Citiwide branded 77mm Infrared 720nm filter. It was processed in Lightroom 3 and came out with some really great contrast.
