This granite and quartz study was made whilst I was on an afternoon walk in Waitpinga with Maleko. We walked along Kings Beach, over, Kings Head, past the wilderness lodge, and down to the rocky outcrop close to the foot of the Newland Head cliffs.
We walked around the rocky outcrop so that I could try out my new digital camera--the Sony A7r111 in low light situations.
This picture of water at a rocky outcrop west of Kings Head in Waitpinga was made just after I acquired a new, full frame digital camera--a Sony Alpha A7r111. I was trying to see if the camera was an improvement on my earlier digital camera--a Sony NEX-7. Was it worth the money that I paid to go full frame?
A test image if you like to assess the dynamic range from white to black:
I was fascinated by the water rushing through the crevice in the rocks. It was low tide and that allowed me to I climb down into the crevice to photograph the rocks and water. This is not something that I would normally do on this outcrop, as it is quite dangerous.
This granite study was made on a poodlewalk just before I came down with a severe cold after the Mallee road trip and the wild, stormy winter weather set in.
I was with Kayla and Maleko and it was late in the afternoon and it was difficult to access. I am not sure that I would be able to re-photograph it with a film camera on a tripod.
This was made whilst on a poodle walk at Kings Beach on the Fleurieu Peninsula South Australia:
It was in the late afternoon in early autumn. I recall being thrown by how much the light had changed due to the sun being lower in the sky.
