Cupid Statue

Posted on July 5, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

As seen in The Royal Botanic Garden in Sydney. Whilst this was taken roughly mid-afternoon, the light is as warm as it is as (if I remember correctly) the the bushfires were still in full force. It’s evident from the … Continue reading →

Uphill Once More

Posted on July 4, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

I knew that I’d taken a shot similar to this a while ago, but  in thinking of how to name this image I realise that it was the same slope. When it comes to detail and light balance I do … Continue reading →

Downhill

Posted on July 3, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Or uphill, depending on how you want to view the thing. I really like the slope’s angle. It shifts a little, but almost feels as though it smoothly curves whilst remaining steep. I also like the contrast in light brought … Continue reading →

Livistona australis

Posted on July 2, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Also known as the cabbage-tree palm. This was taken whilst in The Royal National Park. I like how the shade makes the stems and leaves look. They have a kind of softness to them even though they’re not. I also … Continue reading →

From Behind Grass

Posted on July 1, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

The trees in this particular spot are new to me. I imagine they sprung up some time in the gap between my recent visit and the one a few years ago. That goes without saying, because of course they would … Continue reading →

Transitioning to Evening

Posted on June 29, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

I think that I did really well with this photo. The colours are soft, the light levels are low. There’s a slight warmth to the image. I think the scene is rather beautiful in a way. The clouds feel layered … Continue reading →

Approaching Night

Posted on June 19, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Taken near where I live. It wasn’t this dark when I took the photo, but as I didn’t have my tripod I shot the image a faster speed than I think I wanted. I think it works a bit better … Continue reading →

Camellia Japonica ‘White Nun’

Posted on June 15, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Taken whilst wandering about near home. I don’t feel as though this is the best photo I could’ve taken. I’ve issues with how I’d set up the focus, but on the flip side the overall softness works with the petals, … Continue reading →

Towering Over

Posted on June 13, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

In this shot I really like how the clouds work with the sky. Despite the transmission tower’s appearance, there’s something rather pleasing about the sky overall I think. Maybe it’s actually due in part to the transmission tower and the … Continue reading →

Canna indica

Posted on June 6, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

From what I understand, this one specifically is Canna indica var. flava. I saw this last year during one of the stops Fe and I made whilst we were driving around places south of Sydney. I think the lighting and … Continue reading →
