Saved... by long exposure | After a really average day of shooting and a very lacklustre sunset I hit the car and started the drive from Ballarat back to Melbs. On the way I passed the 'famous' pier and for once there were no other photogs there and there was still a tiny bit of light left. So I parked up, whacked up the tripod, chucked on a ND and set the shutter to 30s. Sometimes it happens that way ~ my best shot of the day was the very last and almost didn't happen at all. Made the drive home much better

I have a confession | I've driven through Ballarat soooooo many times on the way to other places. But it's never been my 'destination'. Well I changed that all yesterday (You see Zuckerberg told me he was switching off FB & Insta for a while ) and I headed up for an afternoon. One word ~ Wow! Wow what a place and wow what a xxxx I've been for never checking out this beautiful regional city. I spent most my time wandering around stunning Lake Wendouree nodding g'day to the locals as they jogged by and keeping a beady on the the gang of shifty swans who were following me. It's taken me about 20 years to visit properly and won't even take me another 20 days before I'm back

If you want to get better at anything, in my case it's improving my images, you have to keep coming back to the same place or do the same practice over and over again. Other days, this boy was not at #lakewendouree but there were hundreds of birds at this very location. His presence and endless circles of riding a bike made sure that the birds weren't coming back with him there. That was a disappointment to me , until I decided to use him as my subject and voila! .

Golden hour at Lake Wendouree, we have 2 more days left in Ballarat and I miss this town and this lake already!
