DM: Australia (Melbourne) Dyxum Outing 3 Jan 10

   A great day was held at Rosie's holiday spot about an hour south east of Melbourne. Scotty B, Rosie and I were the only Alpha mount photographers but other family members joined in the day's outing with a few alien PnSs also in use.

A group shot to get the ball rolling, lots more to follow.

A900 & Min 28-70G

	The rest! All with A900 & either KM17-35, Zeiss 24-70 (Scotty nearly lost this lens ) or 28-75G. Playing with true wide was fun after 4 1/2 years on APS-C but I've got a lot to re-learn . Scotty B Is it a bird? A plane? No - A Rainbow (or so Rosie claimed )

	All right I am about half way through my shots so here is a selection from the first half of the day. 1 I was the first one there and when i got there this guy was floating along the cliffs where i was waiting for the others. 2 It was very overcast at first and the waves where a good size I was hoping for some surfers but they must of stayed home. 3 There are some very interesting rock formations in this area. 4 5 6 7 You never know what you will find amongst the rock(Graham at work) 8 9 10 11 12 13 Part two in the next few days.

	I do not know about that "alien point and shoot" but what the heck is that bright orb in the sky? Sunburn? Must be down under. Awesome looking time together folks. Thanks for sharing and letting us northeners have a look at the sun. John

	I like part two Scott, the photos have a nice light about them, they are practically glowing which I think enhances the landscapes. #2 for me, it has a surreal quality I like. #9 in your set Graham is a cracking good photo (vertical beach landscape) PS: looks like a good day out n the country Edited by wolfy - 07 January 2010 at 01:59
