Favourite Photo - A1 at Milsons Point by Gunzel412

2010-10-31_0228-19b A1 at Milsons Point

I long to be able to take a night shot such as this. My attempts to this time have been unsuccessful, but I am not going to give up.

It is quite obvious that the train is the focal point in the photo, but capturing the beautiful city/Harbour Bridge in the background, really makes it.

I know this section of track and it is not exactly the best location lighting wise. Gunzel412 has done a great job to use the limited lighting available to capture the colours of the train and the stainless steel body has been brought out with a little assistance from the LED lighting emitting from on board the train and the street lights from the road deck.

Only thing I can pick on here (which is no fault of the photographer) is the Harbour Bridge could of had a few more lights on. This would of been the case if the photo was taken earlier in the night before Sydney goes into "power saving mode" overnight.

Favourite Photos - Sheldon

I have 2 Favourite's this time around, and instead of doing to separate posts I shall include them in the one. Photo - Please daddy, can I have some more?

The first being trying to get the puppy to stay focused and still, and the second getting the right lighting. The sun kept going behind the clouds every time I attempted to take the shot. When it finally came back the puppy had moved. In the end I like the result. Mainly the soft background I think sets this photo and well the puppy makes it cute! Photo - Sheldon Click to view photo in Flickr This is a shot I didn't know how it was going to look when I took it. It looks completely different on the computer than it did on the LCD on the camera. At first I thought it would look like a puppy's face with the body hidden behind. then I thought it would look like a puppy laying on the grass. Instead I got w...

And so I Begin...

Monday seen the beginning of a new chapter in my career at my employer. I have commenced working in my new position as a Driver Trainer/Test Crew on the Waratah Train Project. This is an exciting time and something that I have wanted to do since the project was announced a few years ago. I am currently undergoing training and learning all about the new trains, which means working day work. This is normally a bad thing for me as I am not a big fan, but so far it's not been to bad. I am very excited as to what the future hold for me in this position. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
