Those are real nice! And leaches are good for you, it is those dam Otters you have to watch out for! -Shea :mrgreen:
#1 & #3 for me, they have a calm ethereal feel to them..... plus it reminds me how much I miss being in Oz. Where did you shoot these?
Thanks everyone. These are shot in the Chichester State Forest (Outside Dungog, NSW) at Jerusalem Creek and Problem Creek. pp was done in CS3 and was a combination of levels, velvia etc but the main softness comes from an action called Midnight. This one is a Midnight Gold and works particularly well on backlit subjects. If you can't find it on-line, drop me a PM with your e-mail addy and i'll send it to you.
Nowhere near Katoomba, sorry Dungog is roughly an hour west-ish from Newcastle, which is about 2.5 - 3 hours north of Katoomba.
Wow...these are some beautiful shots. Very well captured. The first and third are my faves...cant decide. :thumbup::thumbup:
