August Open Comp

“Lone Leaf” Paul Williams

Taken on 1 August 2015, about 3:14 pm in Tamworth on Peel Street with a Canon EOS 60D. A tripod was used with a cable release. The lens used was a Tamron 16-300mm with a lens hood. The photograph was shot at f/5, exposure 1/400 sec, ISO 100, and focal length 60mm.

“Get Outa My Face” Margaret Carr

Lotus is probably the most cantankerous cat ever!! She only tolerates her owner.

Puss was not happy to have her night-sleep on the bed disturbed… even had a low growl happening. It was a case of dial to Auto, get as close as I dared whilst dodging the paw-swipes, grab a shot & retreat fast!I think those eyes say it all.

“Power” Hayley Hausfeld

Took this photo at the rodeo on Wednesday night. I had a lot of trouble finding the right settings. This is really the only one that I was happy with. I think it shows the power of the might of the bulls and the effort it takes to ride them. Zoom 210mm, Speed 1/200, App f5.3.

“Baby Aiden at 7 months” Jodi Dolbel

“Intriguing” Nick Clark

This was my first attempt at playing with some studio lighting and off camera flash

. The light was placed to the side in a parallel position to the subject so the light showed the profile of the face. Canon 550d, 50mm, f11, 1/125 ISO 11.
