Wynnum Foreshore
1/100th sec, f16, 200ISO, 28-105mm lens @ 73mm, Tripod, Canon 350D
It has been hard to choose an image for todays blip. I am still trying to emulate what Chaos did with mud, sun and reflection recently.
I got up before the sun again and drove down to the waterfront. The tide was out and the sunrise didn't look promising, but I set up anyway and snapped a few images of the mudflats. As the sun rose I took and image every 30 seconds for 5 minutes of which this is one.
There is a sort of optical illusion happening with this and the other images I shot this morning. To me the mudflats look out of focus. I checked and checked in PS as well as looked at images shot with different lenses. The one I looked a closest was shot with my 85mm and it is as sharp as they come. Looking at it from a distance it still looks blurry.
I am thinking it is the fact that there is so much information in the muddy foreshore that the camera and my monitor can't pick it all up. I need to go and get a LCD monitor I think.
On another note.
I had to go into work tonight and on my way home I really fancied Thai for dinner. I raced into my local just as he and his wife were closing up shop for the night. I don't get take away from there often, but I would not go anywhere else. They are good people and sure enough they fired up the stove again just for me. Not only that, but they gave me a gift they had brought back from a recent trip to Thailand. Sure, they had bought the same gift for all their regulars, but I was quite touched to think they regard me and my wife as customers worth presenting with a small token. It really made my day. If you are in the area, Thai Silk, Wondall Rd, Manly West, across the road from the Leagues Club.
